At NETRI, we design, fabricate and exploit 3D microfluidic chips to reproduce neural circuits. NETRI is a young company-private research institute that aims at understanding the structural and functional mechanistic of neural circuits, neurological disorders or potential novel treatments. Using a multi-compartment approach, we can reproduce in our devices complex circuits (up to 7 interconnected neural populations). The “organ on chip” approach allows us to provide physiologically relevant platforms for neuroscience. Our ex-vivo models are used with a wide range of cell lines (rodent, human primary cells or iPSCs). We collaborate with pharmaceutical companies, CROs, academic researchers, and medical doctors to accelerate the understanding of neural troubles mechanisms and the discoveries of new treatments.
