Decoding tumour complexity to design better treatments.
At HeteroGenesys we’re transforming cancer research with a cost-effective, clinically-relevant alternative to animal models and established cell cultures.
OUR SERVICES
Revolutionising Brain Research Alternatives
HeteroGenesys are a team of academics and clinicians from The University of Sheffield, developing our novel platform for heterogeneous cancer research and conducting market discovery through the BBSRC-NC3Rs-ICURe programme.
Our goal is refine a robust, versatile, and translatable in vitro tool to encapsulate tumour heterogeneity and improve predictive power of pre-clinical research. We hope to provide tissue and cell-based resources, an ancillary multi-omics data bank, and expert tailored consultancy.
