Cherry Biotech’s mission

Cherry Biotech’s mission is to develop the most advanced technological platform using in-vitro human biological models to evaluate the impact of compounds (e.g. drugs, endocrine disruptors, cosmetics) on the human body to better treat pathologies and predict adverse side effects. The platform aims to be the best alternative to ineffective animal models by combining novel microfluidic technologies, artificial intelligence, and the most advanced imaging techniques.

 

Our team

To meet all the challenges of our company, we have built a united and hardworking group. We are a multidisciplinary and multinational team, passionate about our mission, helping each other, and adapting to all situations.

3 main attitudes are the foundation of our corporate culture:

Sense of humor 🙂   –   Surpassing yourself   –   Cooperation

 

What do we offer?

Organs on Chip, or microphysiological systems (MPS), have the potential to increase the speed of discovery of new treatments and replace animal models. At Cherry Biotech we developed a new device, CubiX, that controls the physical parameters of the cellular environment.
