About Us
Research and Innovation are in our company’s DNA. They are what we stand for as a regenerative medicine company and continue to fuel us to develop more accessible, sustainable and ground-breaking solutions to address real clinical problems.
Innovations Based on Years of Research
Backed by years of research and development in stem cells and tissue engineering, we aim to harness the potential of proteins and cell signalling molecules produced by cells cultured under favourable conditions, to develop innovative biological materials and combination medical devices.
Our Partners
Cultivating the relationship with our partners is a cornerstone of our business. We make the commitment to understand the real needs of our customers through our trusted partners, who are also at the forefront of ground-breaking innovations. As Science and Technology advance, so do we. This is all so to generate better values and outcomes for both our partners and clients.
NUS
We are in collaboration with the National University of Singapore (NUS), Faculty of Engineering, Department of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering to identify the essential and relevant extracellular matrix components derived from human fibroblast culture systems.
A*STAR
We have collaborations with several institutes from the Agency for Science, Technology and Research (Singapore, A*STAR), which include Bioprocessing Technology Institute (BTI) and Institute of Materials Research and Engineering (IMRE) to develop key processes for to-scale production of these cell-based proteins and bioactive molecules for a variety of applications ranging from acellular skin grafts to cosmeceutics and skin care.
NHG - CMTi
We are in talks with National Healthcare Group (NHG), Centre for Medical Technologies & Innovations (CMTi) to develop clinical applications of the cell culture-derived matrices to aid healing of chronic diabetic foot ulcers, venous leg ulcers and pressure wounds. This collaboration will involve experienced surgeons in the fields of trauma and geriatric medicine, who will provide first hand feedback in the development of this clinically relevant product.
