OUR NBIC AND ANTI-AGING

Molecular machines study for human DNA repair

The DNA-REPAIRMAN collaboration between twelve Europeans partners aims to understand the workings of human DNA repair. More.

Controlled differentiation of human stem cells

This projects aims to create a microfluidic system to cultivate and control the growth and differenciation of human stem cells. It is a collaboration between ENS Paris, the Jacques Monod Institute and the Curie Institute. More.

Understanding the survival of extremophiles through genome analysis

This project aims to study the adaptation mechanisms of extremophiles with bio-computing genome analysis tools. It is a European research project with a dozen of partners. More.

Developing organ-on-chip technology for pre-clinical testing and personalized medicine

This project aims to develop a system for human stem cell culture and differentiation, so as to imitate human organs as best as possible. It is funded by the French government.  It should offer an alternative solution to pre-clinical testing on animals, as well as help to develop testing methods for personalized medicine. More.

Synthetic biology to study human oocyte cell division

This project aims to develop a synthetic human oocyte to study cell division. It is a European research project with six other partners. More.

Microfluidic system for real-time genetic identification

We developed the world’s fastest quantitative system to detect pathogens, for the benefit of the Direction Générale de l’Armement. Today, we are re-purposing the project for diagnosis or bio-defense applications. More.

Microfluidic systems for controlled chemotherapy injection

This projects aims to develop a system for chemotherapy delivery to leukemia patients in real time. It is a European research project with seven partners. More.

Low-cost and miniaturized biological parasites detection systems

This European research project aims to develop a low-cost microfluidic system to detect malaria and sleeping sickness in developing countries. It is being conducted with eight research partners. More.
