Ropirio: Novel Treatments Targeting the Lymphatic System
Ropirio is commercializing the world’s first drug that directly targets and reactivates lymph vessels, a portfolio of other lymph-targeting small molecules, and a preclinical platform for discovering more.
Passive Directional Valve Technology: Towards More User-friendly and Accessible Microfluidic Devices for Diagnostic and Research Applications
Passive directional valves enable smaller and more complex microfluidics applications across of broad spectrum of future technologies, including diagnostics, drug development, and tissue engineering.
Sugar-to-Fiber Enzyme for Healthier Food
In collaboration with Kraft Heinz, our sugar-to-fiber product can convert sugar in food products into prebiotic fiber in the human gut, reducing the amount of sugar absorbed into the bloodstream without altering the amount of sugar in existing food product recipes.
Microfluidic Hemostasis Monitor
The body’s ability to stop bleeding, also known as hemostasis, is critical for survival. For patients with blood clotting disorders, medical conditions requiring the use of anticoagulation or antiplatelet drugs, or who require treatment with extracorporeal devices that circulate their blood outside of the body, it is essential that care providers can rapidly monitor their...
3D Bioprinting of Living Tissues
Progress in drug testing and regenerative medicine could greatly benefit from laboratory-engineered human tissues built of a variety of cell types with precise 3D architecture. But production of greater than millimeter sized human tissues has been limited by a lack of methods for building tissues with embedded life-sustaining vascular networks. In this video, the Wyss...
LactoRING for a Healthy Vaginal Microbiome
LactoRING is a novel slow-release vaginal ring designed to ensure continuous replenishment of Lactobacillus, promoting a healthy vaginal microbiome for a longer duration. The slow-release mechanism and targeted delivery to the vaginal environment will enhance the efficacy and convenience of treatment, thereby providing a comprehensive approach to vaginal dysbiosis management.
