Unique Preclinical EEG Expertise to Accelerate Drug Assessment
At SynapCell, as pioneers in preclinical EEG for the study of Central Nervous System (CNS) responses to active molecules and treatments, we have developed unique know-how in our field of expertise. For 20 years, and thanks to our growing R&D team, we have been perfecting our methods and technologies, and continue to do so to remain at the cutting edge and to provide our customers with the high quality and scientific excellence they deserve.
Cue®, SynapCell’s proprietary and predictive translational in vivo EEG platform, allows our sponsors to predict in-human efficacy of drug candidates at the preclinical stage. To effectively assess the impact of a molecule on the brain, Cue® combines all SynapCell’s know-how and expertise in preclinical EEG: neuroscience, pharmacology, brain surgery, signal recording and analysis.
Our experienced staff conduct precise surgical interventions and electrode implantations to allow EEG recordings. We work with translational models, targeting various brain structures while adhering to ethical guidelines, and have high-level expertise in preclinical brain surgery.
Recording and processing preclinical EEGs to track CNS disorders hold no secrets for us. We use advanced in vivo techniques, proprietary deep-learning platforms, and translational EEG biomarkers to provide precise, reproducible data, ensuring accurate assessment of drug efficacy and phenotyping of rodent models.
Preclinical EEG analysis requires real expertise due to signal complexity, model specificity and the translational nature of the research. Knowledge from preclinical models must be interpreted as potential clinical outcomes. SynapCell’s experts meet all these challenges, ensuring accurate interpretation of data and reliable assessment of drug efficacy.
