EPHORAN Multi-Imaging Solutions is a Contract Research Organization providing imaging expertise and knowledge to study, develop and promote the application of imaging technologies in preclinical drug research and development.

EPHORAN provides the opportunity to apply a translational pharmacological approach in drug R&D, evaluating in animal models a molecular-based proof of biological activity and mechanism of action, and translating it into the clinical setting. All the Techniques extensively employed in the clinical setting(e.g. PET, CT, SPECT, MRI, US and in Optical Imaging, both visible light and Near Infra Red) are available.

EPHORAN fosters the development of diagnostic tools, reagents and methodologies for experimental imaging and makes the drug development faster and more cost effective. Pharmaceutical companies will take advantage from its preclinical imaging technologies to carry on more effectively their R&D projects in different therapeutic such as oncology, cardiovascular and CNS. The application of Imaging techniques allows a significant reduction of the time-to-market of novel compounds. Other users that will benefit from access to Ephoran’s services are Researchers from academic and research institution.

Ambiotis is a pre-clinical CRO specialized in the study of inflammatory processes and the active end of inflammation, called resolution. Resolution is now recognized as the necessary biological process to stop inflammation and restore homeostasis in tissues. This recent approach makes possible to study the inflammation process in a completely innovative and differentiating way.

Ambiotis proposes services adapted to pharmaceutical, dermo-cosmetic, agro- food/nutraceutical industries to evaluate the potential of their molecules at preclinical or clinical stages of development. Ambiotis thus helps them to put faster on the market more efficient and innovative compounds on immuno-inflammatory processes.

With more than 10 years of experience, Ambiotis has acquired a solid expertise in understanding the molecular mechanisms controlling these phenomenons . Ambiotis has built a strong expertise in both cell/animal models and analytical measurement. This combination is the key to ensure a full understanding and provide proof of efficacy or proof of concept for the development of new innovative products.
