BREAKING NEWS ! We are showcasing METAflow at Cyto 2022 in Philadelphia
Discover our new collaborative platform
Metabolism is the most fundamental force driving and sustaining life
At Metafora, we leverage our knowledge and understanding of cellular metabolism to develop
innovative and impactful solutions that change patients’ lives
What we do
OUR EXPERTISE
We are made up of cells that require nutrients for their survival and function.
While metabolism is life’s engine, nutrients are its fuel.
OUR TECHNOLOGY
deciphers how cells use key nutrients to fuel their metabolism. We are developing a unique, powerful In-Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) platform able to detect and characterize single cell energetics to establish a timely and precise diagnosis, and actionable therapeutic monitoring.
Our innovation stems from research at CNRS leading academic labs, in close collaboration with health providers. We have financial support from the European Commission and Bpifrance.
APPLICATION AREAS
Abnormal cell metabolism plays a key role in numerous disorders.
NEUROMETABOLISM
Our first IVD test is already changing children’s lives
CANCER
Metabolic reprogramming is a hallmark of tumor cells
IMMUNOLOGY
Proper metabolic fitness is key to immune cells fates and functions
An innovative blood test to fight GLUT1DS
About us
A multidisciplinary team, with a perfect blend of entrepreneurs, biologists and expert mathematicians.
METAFORA is pioneering a platform for the discovery, development and distribution of diagnotic tests that detect abnormalities in cellular energetics. Using patented reagents that quantify cell nutrient transporters, coupled with powerful algorithms, the flow cytometry platform is able to detect abnormal nutrient consumption that may be the cause of illnesses such as neuro-metabolic diseases, cancer or inflammatory disorders.
