Presentation

Neuron Experts is a Contract Research Organization (CRO) specialized in the study of neuro-active compounds. The company uses its own tests based on primary neuronal cell cultures modeling neurodegenerative diseases and neuronal impairment-induced skin disorders.

An advisory activity in drug discovery and active molecules development in the fields of neuropharmacology and neurodermatology. Neuron Experts assists and advises customers in the preclinical development process of new molecules taking place before clinical studies.
An innovative research & development activity
A customized activity to demonstrate potential neurotrophic and/or neuroprotective effects of new drugs / molecules from neuropharmacology and neurodermatology companies by using appropriated primary neuronal cell assays elaborated in close collaboration with our customers.

Leaders

With 25 years expertise in CNS/PNS CRO and drug discovery companies, the team of Neuron Experts scientists provides strong advices in R&D programs and development of neuro-active molecules. Often attendant to worldwide events and always in touch with the best experts specialized in neurodegenerative diseases or in neuro-dermatology disorders; our scientists always provide state of the art and updated advisory.
