About us
Trailhead Biosystems merges developmental biology and cell therapeutics with cutting edge hardware, and computerized experimental design and analysis to perform process-specific parameter optimization for customers seeking to develop cell therapies. Implementing Quality by Design (QbD) principles, cell culture optimization is done by utilizing Design of Experiment (DoE) theory combined with Multivariate Data Analysis (MVDA). This allows Trailhead to generate mathematical models of the biological system, understand the effector-response relationship in cell culture, and provide a systems biology analysis of the differentiation space. DoE-based experimental design and robotic execution greatly reduce the number of experiments and time needed for optimizing a large number of variables simultaneously. You will see that Trailhead Biosystems is novel from its ability to: Have computer-based experimental designs executed for advanced cell culture Gain knowledge into how cell culture affects gene expression in cells Mathematically model the effector/response space so virtual experiments can be performed and enable exploration of cell biology to predict how additives will create desirable cell culture fates Address optimization challenges for cell purity and potency Understand the variance in cell manufacturing methods

Today, on Dravet Syndrome Awareness Day, we shed light on this rare and severe form of epilepsy that begins in infancy. Dravet syndrome is a lifelong condition characterized by prolonged seizures, developmental delays, and a range of associated health issues. At Trailhead Biosystems, our team is dedicated to advancing research into Dravet syndrome and other epileptic disorders by researching how to optimize protocols to create MGE-derived interneurons from iPSCs. These specialized neurons, originating from the medial ganglionic eminence, play a pivotal role in regulating neuronal activity and maintaining a balanced excitation-inhibition ratio in the brain. We want to provide researchers with physiologically relevant human cell models. We aim to enable crucial studies into the disruptions in neural circuitry and imbalances that contribute to the development of Dravet syndrome. Through our commitment to stem cell research and the creation of disease-relevant models, we strive to contribute to a deeper understanding of Dravet syndrome and drive the development of effective treatments for this rare and challenging form of epilepsy. #DravetSyndromeAwarenessDay #RareEpilepsyAwareness #StemCellResearch #MGEInterneurons #TrailheadBiosystems #EpilepsyModels #DravetTherapies #UnderstandingDravet #NeuronalCircuits #InhibitionExcitation #RareDisease

World Sickle Cell Day, observed annually on June 19th, raises global awareness about this inherited blood disorder that affects millions worldwide. Sickle cell disease is caused by a mutation in the hemoglobin gene, leading to the production of abnormal sickle-shaped red blood cells. These deformed cells can obstruct blood flow, causing pain, organ damage, and life-threatening complications. Our scientists are committed to advancing research into sickle cell disease by unlocking the potential of stem cells to generate various mesoderm-derived cell types, including blood cells. Through innovative methods, we aim to one day assist researchers studying sickle cell diseases by differentiating their disease specific iPSCs into physiologically relevant models. By providing researchers with these disease-specific models, we can one day enable crucial studies into the underlying mechanisms driving sickle cell pathology and the development of novel therapeutic strategies. Our ultimate goal is to contribute to the global effort to find a cure for sickle cell disease and alleviate the suffering of those affected by this debilitating condition. Through our commitment to stem cell research and the creation of disease-relevant models, we strive to pave the way for groundbreaking treatments that could improve the quality of life for sickle cell warriors worldwide. #WorldSickleCellDay #SickleCellAwareness #SickleCellWarriors #CureSickleCell #StemCellResearch #MesodermCells #TrailheadBiosystems #SickleCellModels #FightingSickleCell #SickleCellTherapies #SickleCellCure

Autistic Pride Day is celebrated annually on June 18th. Today, we embrace the unique perspectives and strengths of individuals on the autism spectrum. While autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a complex neurodevelopmental condition, ongoing research aims to shed light on its underlying neural circuitry and brain connectivity disruptions. At Trailhead, our scientists are dedicated to creating MGE-derived interneurons from IPSCs. These specialized neurons, originating from the medial ganglionic eminence, play a pivotal role in the development of autism. By providing relevant human cell models to researchers, we strive to enable crucial studies into the cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying ASD. Our ultimate goal is to contribute to a deeper understanding of autism and pave the way for potential research that could improve the quality of life for those on the spectrum. Through our scientific advancements, we embrace neurodiversity and strive to empower individuals with autism to thrive. #AutisticPrideDay #AutismAwareness #AutismResearch #StemCellModels #MGEInterneurons #TrailheadBiosystems #EmbracingNeurodiversity #AutismTherapies #UnderstandingAutism #AutismCellularModels #SupportingAutism

Fatty Liver Awareness Day is observed annually on June 13th. Today, we shed light on the growing prevalence of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and its more severe form, non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). These conditions, characterized by the buildup of excess fat in the liver, can lead to severe liver damage and cirrhosis if left unchecked. That is why scientists at Trailhead diligently work to derive hepatocytes and other liver cell types from hiPSCs. By developing disease-relevant models for researchers, we hope to enable the unraveling of underlying disease mechanisms and curating possible cures. Ultimately, through our scientific advances, we strive to help offer solutions to all those affected by unhealthy livers. #FattyLiverAwareness #FightFattyLiver #NAFLDAwareness #NASHAwareness #LiverHealth #HealthyLivers #StemCellLiverModels #TrailheadBiosystems #CureNAFLD #ReverseFattyLiver #EndNASH #ProtectYourLiver #FattyLiverFighters #LiverWarriors

Trailhead Biosystems reposted this
BIO24 has concluded and the biotech executives are heading home. So are we, at Trailhead Biosystems. We thank all those we met, both those we planned to meet in advance but as much also those we met unexpectedly and learned from. Opportunities are everywhere - but only if we meet! BIO is an event that needs to be experienced - it is difficult to describe the intensity. The skies of future biotechnology are awaiting many new companies and cures. After BIO24 it feels as the turbulent time of the biotechnology sector is calming. That is good, as perfection takes time and continuity of focus gives results. If you think long acting Glp1R agonists came overnight, think again. Drugs, Biologics, and Cell Therapies are difficult. Very difficult. This industry takes Time. Commitment. Investment.
