[HCSPharma] Invitation to Cosm'ing, a new imaging tool and a new study director for HCS Pharma

June 2016

Les beaux jours arrivent, pourquoi ne pas venir nous rencontrer à Cosm’ing, le salon des ingrédients cosmétiques et des biotechnologies à St Malo du 29 juin au 1er juillet ?
Petit retour sur le début de cette année : Après de bons retours du salon in-cosmetics, nous avons bien avancé dans le développement de modèles pour la dermocosmétique et nous sommes en train de les finaliser sur notre dernière acquisition pour l’imagerie par HCS : le Micro XLS® (Molecular Devices).
Nous sommes également heureux de vous annoncer l'arrivée dans l'entreprise de Pierre-Jean Ferron (Docteur en biologie avec une spécialisation en toxicologie cellulaire) comme directeur d'étude.
Pour toute demande d’information (question d’ordre technique, projet, devis…), n’hésitez pas à nous contacter.
Bon mois de juin à tous !

Issues in producing synthetic culture mediums

Whether in the analytical or in the production field, quality and homogeneity of culture media batches in the course of time has a real impact in laboratories. These media may include more than 300 components including proteins, lipids, as well as hormones, and other molecules. Moreover, their cost has a real impact on the budgeting of research projects.

A very good feedback of In-Cosmetics Paris 2016

Some news in the development of 3D models for biological use

Whether for preclinical research or clinical use, research teams are developing ever finer templates to democratize the use of tissue engineered models. In this publication, the focus is on the development of matrices, guided thanks to a biosynthetic skeleton optimized for cells and tissues aimed to compose it.

Only one month remaining before Cosm’ing !

HCS Pharma is pleased to participate to the Cosm’ing meeting about technological developments in the cosmetic industry. Come and discover our services in Saint-Malo from the 29th June to the first of July 2016.

Our first year in Rennes biopole !

Last thursday we celebrated our first year in Rennes Biopole. We were the first company to enter in the building in September 2014 (yes, it's more one and a half years!) thanks to the help of "Rennes Metropole", the owner. So, we wanted to "mark the occasion" with our partners and, of course, we wanted to thanks them ! Nothing was possible without them !

Salk Institute researchers reveal hidden role of Nervous System Cells using a custom tiny microscope

The involvement of astrocytes in pain transmission mechanisms is being better understood, and imaging technics do help for this purpose. Here is presented a mini-microscope developed by the Slak Institute team to explore the involvement of astrocytes in pain transmission in vivo.

We join the “Réseau Entreprendre” circle of laureates
