November 2017

Nos laboratoires sur le parc Eurasanté sont maintenant opérationnels et notre plateforme d'automatisation a même reçu son nom : HAPIx ! Vous n'étiez pas présents à l'inauguration ? Pourquoi ne pas venir la voir "en vrai" ou virtuellement ? Contactez nous, nous serons ravis de vous accueillir !
Comme nous cherchons à simplifier le choix de vos essais en toxicologie, nous avons réalisé un court formulaire pour vous aider à qualifier vos besoins, et nous avons clarifié nos services. Si vous avez des questions, contactez-nous ! Vous pouvez même essayer notre tchat pour les poser (en bas à droite du site internet).

Our laboratories in the Eurasanté park are now fully operational and our automation platform has now a short name: HAPIx! You couldn't be present at our inauguration? Why not discovering it "in Real Life" or virtually? Get back to us, we will be very happy to welcome you!
As we want to facilitate your choice for a toxicity assay, we have made a short form to help you qualify your needs, and we have clarified our services. If you have any question, feel free to contact us! You can even try the chat to ask us your questions (at the bottom right of our website).

See HAPIx our automation platform from … inside !

Our automation platform in Lille has now a name ! We call it HAPIx for “HCS Automation Platform for Imaging”. And what is this little “x” besides ? It means that we can take 3D pictures of many things like cells, spheroids, skin, histology slides, etc.

To achieve this, we use two very powerful confocal acquisition tools from Molecular Devices (ImageXpress Micro Confocal) and a robust software layer to work in a high throughput manner. Thanks to a strong partnership with Molecular Devices, we are able to use the latest software developments and profit from their best skills ! It is a good way to imagine how to be better and simpler for our customers !

Inauguration of Lille laboratories is done !

We were very happy and excited last friday to receive our guest in our Lille laboratories. It was the “official” inauguration after months of work, installation, validation and some sleepless nights ! Today, our robotic platform is ready thanks to skilled people of our partner Molecular Devices. if you were not present, I suggest you take a look at this short video and, of course, to contact us to come and discover our facilities.

Our feedback of the 35th symposium of the French society of genetic toxicology in Marseille

It was the first time HCS Pharma participate at 35th symposium of the French society of genetic toxicology (SFTG) as a sponsor. The implication of the SFTG in the study and assessment of environmental genotoxic agents motive us to be a sponsor of this 35th event.

Feedback of SIBS 2017 in Zurich last week

was really happy to be invited in SIBS 2017 in Zurich last week to present our work on 3D cell culture in phenotypic screening and our use of disruptive technologies in our process (augmented reality and virtual reality). I presented our collaborative work with Dr Karim Si-Tayeb, researcher from Institut du Thorax (CHOPIN project) on differentiation of iPS in hepatocytes in 3D culture for metabolic diseases screening. Karim has also the opportunity to present a poster on CHOPIN project with more information on iPS differentiation in hepatocytes and their use for phenotypic screening.

Short visit to MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology in Cambridge!

Pierre-Jean, our study director, is actually in Cambridge to visit the MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology. LMB is a research institute dedicated to the understanding of important biological processes at the levels of atoms, molecules, cells and organisms. You should known it because Richard Henderson, the 2017 Nobel Prize for Chemistry, is from the the LMB’s Structural Studies Division !

Why HCS ?

To target complex diseases (as cancer and neurodegenerative diseases), more than one target are needed and screening on complex model is recommended.
