LIMSY

We would like to gauge your interest in the development or usage of new applications of live cell monitoring in diagnostics, drug delivery, biomaterial technology, regenerative medicine, stem cell research, ... . Based on a survey, we can improve the identification of your current needs regarding live cell monitoring and integrate them in the development of a LIve cell Monitoring SYstem (LIMSY).

Microscopic image analysis already offers many possibilities, but with the LIMSY technology, that combines image analysis with sensor technology and data processing, we aim at a more efficient and more targeted way to generate (spatial) information on the behavior of a 2D+ or 3D cell population in function of various environmental factors.

If you are interested in the development or production of the LIMSY within the context of a TETRA* project, or in the validation of the LIMSY device as an end user in fields such as cell biology, the development of biological screening procedures or drug screening, or the study of biomaterials and coatings,… you can collaborate with Prometheus, GroepT and M3-BIORES**.
