A Leap in Scientific Discovery

The MIRI® TL incubator will enable continuous time-lapse imaging of embryo development, capturing images every five minutes. This powerful tool provides researchers with the ability to study the morphokinetics—the timing and patterns of cellular development of species whose embryo development has not yet been fully characterized.

By harnessing this technology, Colossal Biosciences aims to gather essential insights into the early development of targeted species. These insights are crucial in understanding embryonic growth and will play a vital role in their pioneering work.


A Visionary Partner in Science

Colossal Biosciences is widely recognized for its groundbreaking de-extinction initiatives, including efforts to revive iconic species such as the woolly mammoth, tasmanian tiger, and dodo. Their work is not only reshaping conservation science but also pushing the limits of what biotechnology can achieve.

Partnering with a company at the forefront of such revolutionary research is both a privilege and an inspiration for Esco Medical. Together, we share a vision of driving innovation and creating tools that empower researchers to achieve the extraordinary.


Collaboration That Makes It Possible

This project would not have been possible without the dedication and collaboration of an outstanding team:

  • Ana Sousa Lopes, Esco Medical
  • Michael Lopez and Alejandro Cicculli, A&C Microscopes
  • Jeff Stout, Namdori Mtango and the embryology team, Colossal Biosciences

Their combined expertise and teamwork exemplify the spirit of innovation and global collaboration that makes projects like this successful.


Looking Ahead

At Esco Medical, our mission is to support scientists and embryologists worldwide with advanced solutions that make a difference in both healthcare and research. This collaboration with Colossal Biosciences is a shining example of how technology, vision, and determination can come together to shape the future of science.

We are honored to play a role in this groundbreaking journey—and excited to see where these discoveries will lead.
