Our platform

Next-generation organoid models, patient to platform

Nocteva builds organoid models from patient-derived cells, enabling disease research, drug discovery, and personalized medicine without animal testing.

In-house control & disease-specific iPSC lines
Reprogramming of customer-derived patient material
Knockout & isogenic lines and organoids for advanced disease modeling

Whether you require a single experimental platform or a complete end-to-end pipeline, our technologies can be tailored to your research questions and therapeutic goals.

Our Mission

Bridging the gap between fundamental research and clinical translation to advance safer, more effective, and more personalized therapies for inherited rare diseases.

Our commitment

Reinvesting our surplus into research

A share of Nocteva's own commercial surplus flows into the NRRF (Nocteva Research Reinvestment Fund) and goes directly back into research: both disease-focused work and the platform building (equipment, methods, and standardization) that makes that research possible and better, while strengthening capacity that can benefit many more rare diagnoses.

Disease research
Direct funding for research into rare genetic diseases and their mechanisms.
Platform building
Equipment, methods, and standardization that make the research possible, and better.
Shared capacity
Strengthened capacity that can benefit many more rare diagnoses over time.
A locked research fund
The NRRF is Nocteva's ring-fenced research reserve: its capital can only be used for research, can never be paid out as dividends or to owners, and is excluded from market valuation.
