Core Technologies
The brain is composed of several cell types interacting and connected together in specific yet complex circuits.
Brain-on-chip technologies should translate this complexity by:
- Organizing both neural and non-neural cell types in specific architectures
- Connecting cells at the molecular, cellular and network levels
Recording the functional activity of the entire network
NETRI has developed technologies to integrate multiple organs/organoids within the same chip, in which each biological function has been validated with industry standard hiPSC derived cells.
Our devices are designed for long term co-cultures (up to 3 months), thanks to our choice of materials composed of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) and polycarbonate.
Our chips reproduce the physiological behavior of any organs. Multi organs interactions, such as gut-brain axis, can also be mimicked when integrating all our technologies within one chip.
