3Scan is a biotechnology research company based in San Francisco, California, that treats tissue biology and histopathology as data. Its KESM system generates digital 3D tissue models with micron-scale resolution and substantially higher throughput than conventional microscopes. The company also maintains a data platform that enables quantitative image analysis across diseases such as cancer and major neurodegenerative conditions, supporting researchers in pursuing new diagnostic and therapeutic avenues. Together, these offerings establish a digital workflow for pathology research. Founded in 2011 by Todd Huffman, Megan Klimen, Matthew Goodman, and Cody Daniel, 3Scan grew from San Francisco with a multidisciplinary team of engineers, biologists and data scientists. In 2019 it expanded through a merger with Transcriptic, reflecting ongoing development toward tools that enable rapid identification and classification of histopathologic features and tissue structures.
