Core Services

Three Complementary Platforms

A focused service offering that connects researchers to reliable human cell models, protein reagents and functional data.

01

Stem Cell Culture

hiPSC maintenance, expansion, quality control and banking for patient-derived and isogenic cell lines, with flexible support for disease modelling and collaborative studies.

02

hiPSC-Derived Neurons for Research

Reproducible cortical and midbrain dopaminergic neuron differentiations for mechanistic studies, assay development, compound testing and functional phenotyping.

03

Protein Production

Purification and fibril production for α-synuclein, tau, TTR and amyloid-β, supporting biophysical characterization, cell-based experiments and custom project needs.

Equipment & Facilities

The Infrastructure Behind the Work

Specialized instrumentation and dedicated culture space support reproducible functional assays, protein purification and stem cell workflows.

Multielectrode Array

Functional recording of neuronal and cardiac activity for phenotyping, assay development and compound-response studies.

FPLC

Controlled chromatography workflows for high-quality protein purification, preparation and downstream characterization.

Stem Cell Facility

Dedicated culture infrastructure for hiPSC maintenance, banking, quality control and reproducible directed differentiation.

How to Work With Us
