Revolutionizing Pre-Clinical Pain Assays
Empowering you to conduct more efficient, accurate, and reliable studies in the field of mechanosensory research.
Problem
Researchers encounter limitations with traditional methods such as von Frey hair filaments, delaying scientific progress!
- Manual Delivery Methods
- Inconsistent and reliant on researcher skill.
- Extensive Training Requirements
- Demands over six months of training for proficiency.
- Inherent Variability
- Results vary between researchers and labs.
- Experimenter Influence
- Experimenter presence can significantly impact outcomes.
- Limited Measurement Capabilities
- Current tools fail in assessing hyperalgesia or affective pain.
Solution
We create innovative tools for studying mechanical touch and pain in animals.
The ARM (Automated Reproducible Mechano-Stimulator) is the first device capable of conducting remote mechanosensory assays with unmatched consistency. Our mission is to automate these assays and analyses, enabling you to focus on new experiments and questions.
