Importance of the microenvironment in cerebral in vitro models for phenotypic screening (Abstract of Veronique’s thesis)

About 90% of drug candidates fail in clinical trials, for efficacy- and toxicity-related reasons, which often involve the Central Nervous System (CNS). This high failure rate highlights a lack of relevance in experimental models used upstream, including human in vitro models. Indeed, they do not take into account the complexity Read more…

Collaboration between “Institut du thorax” and HCS Pharma: improving the management of hypercholesterolemia using a relevant and innovative organoid-based in vitro liver model

Launched in 2016, the adventure is coming to an end after 5 years of work carried out within the RHU CHOPIN (CHOlesterol Personalized INnovation), and with a strong collaboration between HCS Pharma and l’Institut du thorax. This collaborative project of national scope was led by Professor Bertrand Cariou, director of Read more…

We will present our work about the generation of functional human liver organoids with BIOMIMESYS® in CNRS thematic school

This week we will present at the thematic school “From 3D culture to the organoid: multidisciplinary research” organised by the Institute of Biological Sciences of CNRS (France) in Strasbourg. Study director Méryl Roudaut will talk about the generation of functional human liver organoids using hiPSC and our innovative 3D cell Read more…

A representative hematoxylin and eosin staining of UV-induced skin tumor or skin obtained from SKH-1 mice colonized by S. epidermidis 1457 or MO34, respectively, treated with UV-B for 12 weeks.

We update our services in dermocosmetology for Skin Pigmentation and Oxidative Stress

Summer is alway a good time to improve our services. Then we are very happy to introduce our updated Skin Pigmentation and Oxidative Stress services. Pigmentation is particularly regulated  at  the  cellular  level  by  melanocytes synthesizing  melanin  within  melanosomes,  which  can be  produced  in  varying  sizes,  numbers,  and  densities. In order to evaluate Read more…

Robin and Orégane join us to develop a microfluidic system for mechanical sollicitation of cancer spheroids

As part of their engineering studies at ISEN Lille for a master’s degree specialized in Bionanotechnologies, Robin and Orégane arrived in HCS Pharma in May 2021 for a 4-month internship. Their work in HCS Pharma follows a student project during which they designed and computationally simulated a microfluidic device capable Read more…
