What services does Inventia Life Science offer?

Whether you're developing models in-house or looking for a full-service partner, Inventia offers a flexible suite of Discovery Services to meet your research goals. From matrix optimization and morphology assays to custom co-cultures and screening-ready formats, our modular approach lets you start where you need—and scale as your workflow evolves.

Explore our core service packages below, from foundational PrintRun optimization to fully integrated screening support:

Model Optimization

  • Fine-tune matrices, cell densities, and formats—tailored to your biology. Ideal for teams establishing or optimizing 3D models for their disease area or cell type of interest.

Custom Development Projects

  • Collaborate with Inventia scientists to design models around your assay needs. Whether exploring immune–tumor dynamics, matrix stiffness, or complex co-culture architectures, we support iterative development aligned with your functional endpoints.

End-to-End 3D Workflow Development

  • Lean on our team’s expertise in adapting gold-standard analysis workflows to 3D models. We will custom develop end-to-end model generation, treatment, and analysis pipelines aligned with your program’s requirements.

High-Throughput Screening (HTS) Enablement

  • Speed up screening with models optimized for plate-based automation. Includes protocol documentation, QC standards, and assay-ready outputs for imaging, viability, gene expression, and more.

Scientific Support & Tech Transfer

  • Every project includes consultative experimental design, agile execution, deep data analysis and reporting,, and full tech transfer packages for in-house implementation. Whether you're new to 3D or scaling a platform, we meet you where you are.
Can Inventia Life Science customize services to meet our project needs?

Absolutely. Inventia’s modular approach is built to accommodate a wide range of research needs. We work closely with your team to customize matrix, model architecture, cell types, readouts, and workflows—whether you’re optimizing for a particular indication, building complex co-cultures, or enabling disease-relevant phenotypic screening.

Each project is developed in consultation with your scientists to ensure alignment with your goals, timelines, and downstream assays.

How does technology transfer work with Inventia Life Science?

At the conclusion of your project, you’ll receive a complete transfer package designed for immediate use in your lab. This includes:

  • Detailed protocols for cell culture, model generation, and assays

  • Annotated reports summarizing optimization results and recommendations

  • Data and images delivered via secure file transfer (e.g., SharePoint or AWS)

Whether you're scaling up for screening or continuing research in-house, we ensure a smooth handoff to support your next steps with confidence.

What downstream applications do you have experience with?

Inventia Life Science supports a wide range of downstream applications, including gold-standard metabolic & cytokine analyses, high-content imaging, and omics analyses.. Our team has deep experience adapting standard cellular and molecular assays for use with RASTRUM 3D models.

If your project requires something more specialized, our team is equipped to develop novel readouts to meet your goals. For examples of validated applications, explore our application note library.

 

How can we start a project?

Commencing a study with Inventia Life Science is simple. Reach out to us through our website or your regional representative, and we’ll schedule a discovery call to discuss your goals. Based on this discussion, we’ll draft a tailored statement of work for your review. Once approved—either directly or via platforms like Scientist.com or Science Exchange—we’ll hold a kickoff meeting, manage materials transfer, and get your project underway.

What is the typical timeline for a project?

Timelines depend on the level of customization and complexity required. After an initial consultation, we’ll develop a work plan with clear phases and milestones. Most projects begin within 2–4 weeks after approval. Our team maintains close communication throughout to keep you informed of progress and any timeline adjustments.

How does Inventia Life Science handle intellectual property and confidentiality?

Inventia Life Science follows strict confidentiality practices to protect your data. All project information remains secure and is never shared without your written consent.

When it comes to IP, any custom protocols or biological data generated during your project are owned by you. Inventia Life Science retains ownership only of the underlying RASTRUM matrices and printing technologies used in the workflow.

Is there support available after the completion of a project?

Yes—our partnership doesn’t end when the project wraps. We continue to offer remote support, including technical guidance and scientific consultation. If you’re a RASTRUM user, your Customer Success specialist will remain your primary contact. For custom projects or model transfer, our scientific team is always available to help troubleshoot, adapt, and optimize as your needs evolve.
