March 15: CellASIC awarded NIH "Lab to Marketplace" SBIR grant

CellASIC received a Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) award from the National Institutes of Health to continue advancing its state-of-the-art microfluidics product development. Specifically, this grant will be used to complete a microfluidic liver array system for studying drug metabolism properties in vitro. This is critically important for biopharmaceutical advancement to avoid liver related injury in clinical testing and post-marketing. The SBIR funding will also allow CellASIC to further improve its industry leading microfabrication facilities to attain higher product quality, throughput, and yield.

January 26: CellASIC selected as one of 8 companies worldwide to present at the Association for Laboratory Automation's Innovation AveNew, January 25-27.

CellASIC's innovative microfluidic cell culture products will be showcased at the Laboratory Automation exhibit hall, as well as a presentation on "Microfluidic Cell Culture Arrays."

January 12: CellASIC presents "Microfluidic 3D Cell Culture Array" at the CHI High Content Analysis Meeting, San Francisco, CA
