NMT International Alliance — global research network

NMT International Alliance

One Technology. One Discipline. One Global Program.

The NMT International Alliance unites scientists and research institutions worldwide around NMT — Non-invasive Micro-test Technology — and the imOmics discipline and Global imOme Project it has given rise to.

The Trinity

NMT · imOmics · GiP

From a measurement technology, to a live-functional-omics discipline, to an international big-science program.

01

NMT

The Technology · NMT

Non-invasive Micro-test Technology measures the dynamic flux of ions and molecules entering and leaving living samples — contactless, ultra-high sensitivity, no staining, no damage. Named by Prof. Yue Xu with the inspiration and help of Drs. Tingyun Kuang, Fuyu Yang and Kechun Lin, NMT passed the "international leading" review of China's Ministry of Science and Technology in 2021.

imOmics

The Discipline · imOmics

imOmics — the live functional omics (Live Functional Omics) initiated by Yue (Jeff) Xu — is built on NMT's real-time ion/molecule flux data. Where genomics reads life's code, imOmics reads life's living exchange with its environment: Life is Environment.

Life is Environment
03

GiP

The Program · GiP

The Global imOme Project (GiP) is the international big-science program initiated by the Zhongguancun Xuyue NMT Industrial Alliance, with Academician Tingyun Kuang as Chief Scientist. GiP maps the ion-molecule fluxome of life at scale, building on the Bio-imOmics Project (BiP) blueprint.

The mission behind GiP

NMT measures the fluxes → imOmics reads them as living omics → GiP maps them across the globe.

Who We Are

The NMT International Alliance

The NMT International Alliance (NMTia) is a global network of scientists, research institutions and organizations pioneering the application of Non-invasive Micro-test Technology. The Alliance fosters collaboration, shared standards and discovery in the life sciences — carrying NMT from a measurement technique, to the imOmics discipline, to the Global imOme Project.
