Organoids are three-dimensional structures made of cells, which can be derived from stem cells to mimic the structure and function of real organs. They are useful tools for studying human development, disease modeling, drug screening, and personalized medicine. Recent advancements in organoid research have focused on improving their complexity and Read more…
Industry and academia are increasingly complexifying their in vitro models, not only 3D models but also organs-on-chip (OoC) in their studies. Such systems are needed for putting different tissues into contact, or to take into account flux-related aspects. BIOMIMESYS® being an ideal hydroscaffold™ for 3D cell culture, this webinar aims Read more…
We previously showed that human pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) provide a suitable model to studymetabolic diseases upon hepatocyte-like cell (HLC) differentiation. With a non-invasive approach, hiPSCs can be generated from urine samples of patients and HLCs have been used to model cholesterol metabolism regulation, by the study of LDLR- and Read more…

HCS Pharma était présent au Workshop OoC pour une création et une structuration de la filière, organisé par Biovalley à l’Institut Pierre-Gilles de Gennes (Paris). Nous sommes très heureux d’avoir pu sponsoriser l’événement, mais aussi tout simplement d’y avoir participé – en présentiel – et de pouvoir discuter avec des chercheurs Read more…
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…
Our project leader Dr Meryl Roudaut was invited to present at the last ISVHLD congress, the Global Hepatitis Summit, in Taiwan. The theme of the summit, “Evolution and Revolution of Viral Hepatitis and Liver Disease”, was perfect to talk about the use of BIOMIMESYS® product to overcome the limitations of Read more…
We are very happy to welcome Lucille in our laboratory. Lucille is currently finishing a master degree in Biotechnologies at AgroParisTech, a French engineering school. During her studies, she had the opportunity to work with 3D vascularised cellular models in the Herland Lab of KTH, Royal Institute of Technology, in Read more…
3D cell culture systems have recently emerged as promising tools for reproducing the cellular environment and the organization of tissues/organs, where cells are connected to each other and to the surrounding extracellular matrix (ECM). In this presentation we will focus on BIOMIMESYS® Liver and will discuss about its different applications. Read more…
The 8th edition of the Symposium of “Functional Genomics of the Liver” (GFF) will be held from 26 to 28 February 2020 in Rennes, at the Couvent des Jacobins. Meryl, from our team, will be present with a poster about hiPSCs-derived liver organoids made with BIOMIMESYS® Liver hydroscaffold. If you Read more…

It was a great pleasure to be invited (thanks to our partner Molecular Devices) to present our work during these 2 events organized by selectBio in Rotterdam: Organoids and Tox Screening Europe 2019 on June 13-14 Organ-on-a-Chip and Tissue-on-a-Chip Europe 2019 on June 18-19 Both were of great interest for Read more…
We will be present this week and next week in Rotterdam, to talk about 3D cell culture and the importance of the microenvironnement in the relevance of in vitro models. As you known, to mimic human tissues, several parameters need to be taken into account: the target cells, nutrient intake Read more…
Using iPS, researchers are moving very quickly in understanding cell differentiation and already manage to recreate a mini-organ in vitro after 20-30 days of differentiation
