The biggest challenge for our company was building up our own research and development department. Since the year 2000 CellSystems R&D has mainly focussed on the development of three-dimensional cell culture models.

By now two 'state of the art' skin models have been developed. AST-2000 and EST-1000 are both designed for cosmetic and chemical compound testing as well as for basic cell research. Based on this technology we have consequently improved our expertise to establish new in vitro test systems for the replacement of animal testing.

We do so in cooperation with university institutes and private industrial partners and are constantly striving to extent the fields of application of our human cell systems. At CellSystems^® we are fostering research partnerships in the area of cell and tissue engineering and we invite scientists to discuss all kinds of challenging opportunities in cell biology related fields.
