公司简介:


NeuCyte is an early-stage biotechnology company solely focused on neurological diseases. With the expertise on advancing the drug discovery process by using cell based target identification and drug discovery platforms, NeuCyte puts an emphasis on the biology insight of the disorders to develop novel drugs that truly address the altered biological state of the patients.


Our technology accelerates the lead drug identification and optimization process. Our unique human neural platform allows for the evaluation of human specific neural phenotypes that are not identifiable in traditional animal models. This allows for a more reliable predictor of drug efficacy and potential neurotoxicity.
