Drug screening and profiling in cultured human (3D) tissues

We offer drug screening and profiling services for cancer and other diseases using cultured human (3D) tissues. Our screening platform combines throughput with histology grade automated imaging to discern both therapeutic and off-target/toxic effects in a biologically relevant context. From smaller biotech to big pharma and from large scale screens to profiling of a single lead molecule, our services provide rich information on the effects of your molecules, facilitating decision making
