Academia

Maximise your research impact with exemplary contract services

Accelerate research progress with our automated C. elegans technology and CRO expertise

We help academics at the cutting edge of scientific progress maximise their research impact and accelerate progress through our specialist CRO services.

C. elegans is a proven whole model organism with human translatability for many disease states, aging and longevity, and compound testing. Whether you are new to using C. elegans or already working with the model, we save you valuable time so you can focus on key research priorities like publications, grant funding proposals, and translating your research to industry.

With access to decades of C. elegans expertise and our unique automated VivoScan^™ and WormGazer™ technology, you gain rich multi-end point in vivo data for research success. We provide full study design consultancy and exemplary follow-on technical support.

How we help academics:

For researchers without access to a C. elegans lab:

Fast, in vivo data with human translatability for research impact

Acute and chronic drug effect testing, faster and cheaper than rodents

Fast, rich data in weeks, with unique automated VivoScan^™ and WormGazer^™technology

Study set-up & design consultancy, exemplary technical support

Well-structured, high-quality data formats for publication

Custom transgenics and assay design consultancy

For researchers already working with C. elegans:

Unique automation to transform and accelerate your project

Accelerate and transform manual assays with automated VivoScan^™ and WormGazer^{^™}technology

Full healthspan in vivo data with multi endpoint analyses in weeks (not just live/dead outcomes)

Custom transgenics and novel assay design consultancy

What Our Customers Say

View All Testimonials

“It was absolutely great to work with Magnitude Biosciences on several projects involving generating extra-chromosomal transgenic lines.… I have been impressed at how fast and efficient they are at what they do. I would totally recommend their services as a contract lab for C. elegans research.”

Dr. Laetitia Chauve

Postdoctoral Researcher,
Babraham Institute

“Magnitude Biosciences helped us with a very complex gene-editing project. We really appreciated working with their team – in particular, Michael Fasseas, who was extremely helpful with all aspects of the project, from CRISPR design through to injection/screening… they went above and beyond to adapt the project design as needed and their flexibility, responsiveness and transparency of communication, and the transgenics and C. elegans expertise they have in their team gave us a lot of confidence. We highly recommend their services as a contract C. elegans lab.”
