- Formed a Scientific Advisory Board, comprised of leading clinicians and researchers in the areas of infectious disease, laboratory medicine, and pharmacy, to provide strategic guidance.

- Strengthened our balance sheet by raising $27.4 million of net proceeds through ATM facility, including $4.5 million in the second quarter and $22.9 subsequent to the end of the second quarter.
"Our second quarter results demonstrate continued execution across our three corporate priorities: accelerating our sales, enhancing our operations, and advancing our pipeline," stated John Sperzel, Chairman and CEO of T2 Biosystems. "While we have seen an expected decline in sales of COVID-19 tests, we are pleased with our continued progress driving adoption of our T2Dx Instrument and sepsis test panels, while improving operating efficiency and advancing the U.S. clinical trials for the T2Resistance Panel and the T2Biothreat Panel. We strengthened our balance sheet during and subsequent to the end of the second quarter, allowing us to achieve our near-term milestones and keeping us well positioned to drive sustainable, long-term growth."
