Sensars
|
There are almost 5 millions of amputees, and even more nerve-injured persons, only in the USA and Europe. Together with commonly present neuropathic pain, and lost limb function (nerve injuries), they have no perception or control of the force required to hold or pick up objects and cannot feel their shape or consistency (when using prostheses). Acentury after the first prosthesis, electrodes, electronics and surgical expertise can be merged into the life-changing solution.Our venture is a synergistic effort converging expertise from microtechnologies, algorithms, electronics and clinical experimentation. We are an EPFL-based startup, founded by Francesco Petrini, Stanisa Raspopovic, and Silvestro Micera.Our mission is to re-enable upper, lower-limb amputees and nerve-damaged persons by:Restoring their complete sensory-motor functionality. Diminishing phantom limb pain. Enabling them to feel the artificial limb as part of their own body.From a market viewpoint, the nerve-injured persons do not have effective ways for function restoration, so we are proposing a novel tech and therefore generating a new market. As for amputees, the prosthetic limbs are getting more sophisticated but lack sensory feedback. We are constructing the game-changing functional improvement of the technology that will become the essential feature of the next-generation of prosthesis.Amputees and peripheral nerve damaged persons are in constant increase, mainly due to diabetes, car accidents, work injuries and wars. Among the most disabling consequences of these is the interruption of sensations flow from extremities to the brain. The absence of feedback and the perception of prosthesis as a foreign body are the primary reason for refusal to use prosthesis. Amputees cannot feel the shape or material of objects they are holding and have no perception of the force required to hold or pick up objects. Nerve-injured persons often have completely functionally unusable limbs. In 50-80% of cases, amputees and nerve-injured experience neuropathic pain from the missing part of the limb and drugs do not provide adequate relief. Providing them with an adequate sensory feedback would solve their problems. | Pre-Seed / Jun 11, 2024 | |
Lys Therapeutics
|
Lys Therapeutics is a biotechnology company developing drugs to treat patients suffering from neurovascular or neurodegenerative disorders. The company's main drug is a monoclonal antibody, Glunozumab, displaying an exclusive and groundbreaking mechanism of action, that triggers off-target toxicity through hyperactivation of both vascular andneuronal NMDA receptors (NMDAr). It causes the disruption of the blood-brain and blood-spinal cord barriers and strong neuronal excitotoxicity including stroke and multiple sclerosis. | $3.1M / Seed / Nov 14, 2022 | |
Leuko
|
Leuko Labs develops non-invasive white blood cell monitoring device. White blood cell assessment is a first-line indicator for various medically-relevant situations, ranging from chemotherapy management to the detection of life threatening infections worldwide. This test is currently invasive and not readily accessible - it requires patient travel,blood draws and laboratory infrastructure. Though its white blood cell monitoring device PointCheck, immunosuppressed patients can now be tested more frequently, moving towards improved quality of life and improved clinical outcomes. | $5M / Series A / Sep 23, 2022 | |
