Advancing preclinical drugdevelopment
Predictive Precision: Advancing Drug Development with Human Neuron Models
Drug development for brain disorders remains a huge challenge. At Neurospector, we are at the forefront of drug development through cutting-edge research using predictive human neuron disease models and advanced read-outs of neuronal functioning. Our mission is to harness the power of translational neuroscience to test new treatments for brain disorders and improve the quality of life for millions worldwide.
Our Approach
Our human neurons
We have optimized our culture procedures to grow functionally mature excitatory and inhibitory cortical human neurons, as well as human motorneurons. We work with monocultures and co-cultures of human neurons with astrocytes or human muscle. All our human neuron cultures go through extensive quality control.
Our Technology
With more than 20 years of experience in measuring neuronal communication, we have developed an extensive library of functional read-outs, including live microscopy of neuronal network activity and synaptic activity, electrophysiology, intracellular vesicle trafficking and secretion and morphological parameters.
Our Services
We offer customized projects for compounds screening and validation, target discovery or the development of novel predictive disese models. We focus on neurodevelopmental, neurodegenerative and psychiatric disorders, or defects in neuronal communication or intracellular trafficking.
