With over a decade of experience in the human iPSC space, we understand that high-quality compound/phenotypic screening is challenging, with significant risks and costs if not performed well. But like you, we also see the enormous value in human iPSCs for building better, more physiologically relevant models of human disease.
That’s why we offer our iPSC expertise to leading biopharma and research organizations globally, helping them to generate robust pre-clinical data to validate compounds, or narrow down a large compound library for further in-depth experimental analysis.
We’ve developed a tried-and-tested workflow to offer efficientcompound screening to fit your project needs. We combine our iPSC expertise with a comprehensive suite of custom assays to deliver efficient compound/phenotypic screening, with a specific emphasis on the quality and communication of assay data.
Clients who work with Axol share our obsession with doing it once and doing it well. We prioritize quality control and robust data reporting, always built-in as standard in our projects, to ensure there are no surprise challenges (or costs), maximizing project success. That gives you more confidence, time and resource to focus on your research to produce better human disease models for drug discovery and beyond.
