Developing higher order systems that reflect real human biology is not easy. It typically requires an interdisciplinary research team of experts in the fields of bio-microfluidics, bioengineering, micro-fabrication technologies, and cell biology.

But you don't have to prepare a massive program grant to get started!

With the Akura™ Next Generation Academic Access Program, you can immediately start to use exciting new technology to investigate complex biological questions in your research.

One Microphysiological Platform, Endless Research Possibilities

  • Add a new level of physiological complexity to spheroid/organoid assay
  • Address questions that can't be answered in static / non-multi-tissue settings
  • Ask biologically relevant questions and skip spending time and money on the platform development and bio-engineering issues
  • Start tomorrow with multi-tissue systems using a powerful, yet easy to use plug-and-play microfluidic technology platform
  • Take advantages of InSphero’s expertise and consulting in developing 3D models development, platform engineering and read out integration
