Cambridge Phenotyping attracts 610K EUR investment

May 5, 2022

A major new UK DRI Grand Challenge project, led by Prof Karen Duff, Centre Director of the UK DRI at UCL, seeks to understand the earliest stages of Alzheimer’s, by simultaneously examining molecular and cellular changes in mice and studying the very first behavioural changes in humans at risk of the disease. Through greater understanding of the underlying mechanisms of Alzheimer’s, the project could lead to the development of new biomarkers to aid in early disease detection, and therapeutics to treat the condition.

Coinvest, the acceleration fund 70V and business angels invest in Cambridge Phenotyping, a company founded by neuroscientists Julija Krupic and Marius Bauza.

In their recent announcement “Coinvest Capital” said:

“Together with business angels and the acceleration fund 70V, we invested in Cambridge Phenotyping, a company created by neuroscientists Julija Krupic and Marius Bauza.

They created artificial intelligence technology “Smart Kage” that helps to monitor and analyze rodent behavior in medical laboratories. It is an incredibly innovative research solution, which allows us to analyze the behavior of the animal 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

We wish Cambridge Phenotyping the best in introducing the product to the market.”

Just imagine that you have your mouse, which has received no training. You put it in the cage, close it up and walk away, that is it. The system does all the testing for you, 24/7, with the data put out in near real time so you can run all the analysis that same day.
