MADISON, WIS., August 29, 2013 - Cellular Dynamics International, Inc. (Nasdaq:ICEL), a leading developer and manufacturer of fully functioning human cells in industrial quantities to precise specifications, today reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2013.
“We are proud of the strong revenue growth demonstrated in this, our first quarterly earnings announcement as a public company,” said Robert J.
