Why choose SCD?
We are single-cell sequencing experts
We are 100% focused on single-cell and spatial transcriptomics, enabling us to take on both large-scale projects and create customized solutions for each client project.
Our experience is unmatched in the field
We have been working in the single-cell field since 2012. Our co-founder and CEO Mauro Muraro published our SORT- seq technology, and our R&D consultant is the mind behind VASA-seq. We have experience in over 40 organisms and 30 tissues and are able to quickly adapt workflows for novel samples.
We help you stay ahead of the curve
We are committed to continuously integrating leading-edge technologies into our service offerings to ensure clients have access to the latest advancements. Our R&D department works to both internalize the best commercial platforms and advance our own single-cell innovations.
We work with you as a collaborative partner
We are dedicated to maintaining a high-touch, collaborative relationship with clients as we scale our capacity to accommodate larger projects. We act as a thought partner and a catalyst for biological discovery.

Case studies
Snake Venom Gland Organoids
Three PhD students, under the supervision of Prof. Dr Hans Clevers in molecular genetics and snake expert Prof. Dr Freek Vonk, conducted this remarkable research in which they developed snake venom-producing organoids. The organoids were characterized using SORT-seq. Here, we explain how the project was done.
