Capabilities overview 

Our cardiovascular research services offer end-to-end solutions, including: 

  • Target identification and validation: employing functional genomics (CRISPR/Cas9), bioinformatics and omics analyses to identify and validate novel targets
  • In vitro assay development: tailored cell models, including human iPSC-derived cardiac cells for mechanistic and pathway analyses.

CV technology platform 

Our technology platforms support research in the fields of: 

  • Hereditary cardiac disease 
  • Arrhythmias and heart failure 
  • Cardiac fibrosis.

 

We support your cardiovascular projects with: 

Human iPSC-derived cell models 

  • Ventricular and atrial cardiomyocytes 
  • Cardiac fibroblasts
  • Cardiac endothelial cells 
  • 3D engineered cardiac organoids (ECOs).

 

Imaging and analysis 

  • Multi-electrode array (MEA) for electrophysiological studies 
  • Impedance-based endothelial/epithelial barrier assays 
  • Non-invasive imaging platforms for functional assessments.

 

High-throughput screening

  • Screening of small and large molecule libraries, including fragment-based and virtual approaches 
  • High-content imaging with advanced imaging systems for live-cell analysis and phenotypic screening.

 

Metabolic profiling: Seahorse analyser for mitochondrial and cellular energetics.
