QED Labs had originally been involved in the development of computational structural biology software. Principals of the firm developed computational research tools for three-dimensional structural determination from electron microscopy data that enable biologists, at all levels of structure determination, easily to process their data. QED Labs accomplished this with innovative software that guides user on how, when, and why to perform data processing operation. Very active in the SBIR space for several years but the firm ceased operations some time after 2006 when principal and founder of the firm was recruited to work at NIH..
