Partner with Imanis’s team of scientists to get your research off the ground. We provide contract research services for virus and vector-based therapies, including proof-of-concept studies and therapy development and optimization.
Contact Our Team
We approach every project as a scientific partnership, rooted in a team committed to meaningfully contributing to overcoming challenges in viral, cell, and gene therapy. Based on your goals, we carefully develop project plans and, as needed, troubleshoot and adapt throughout the project to ensure success.
We are especially well-suited for niche projects that demand more customization and highly technical work that will require more troubleshooting to accomplish.
Confirm your tumor model behaves as expected in vivo by verifying growth, transgene expression, and therapeutic response before your critical research window passes.
Get the mouse study data you need to evaluate how your therapy performs in a living system, from therapeutic effect to post-administration vector biodistribution.
Build and refine the viral or vector platform that will carry your therapy forward, from early proof-of-concept through optimization.

Be prepared to share: the context of the work you are requesting be performed, details of any sponsor-specific materials or technology that will need to be used or incorporated into the research, including any protocols, goals of the research, considered success metrics, any regulatory level requirements, project timelines, and any third-party partners you wish us to work with.
Our primary specialties are virus and vector engineering and targeting at a preclinical level. We are well-suited for proof-of-concept studies and therapy development and optimization, but our services support work at all levels.
Because of our deep expertise in the virus and vector area, we have unique capabilities that make us well-suited for highly technical research. We know what controls are critical for interpreting data properly and how to quickly troubleshoot issues, and we can provide in-depth advice on experimental direction and next steps. We also have:
Yes! In fact, we often work as a single partner for the full spectrum of studies, which has scientific and operational benefits. What we learn from in vitro work can inform in vivo or ex vivo work, helping us tailor experiments to yield the most informative data and increase the likelihood of success. From an operational perspective, this also simplifies logistics by minimizing the need to ship materials back and forth and allowing us to leverage in-house controls.
We are highly adaptable and responsive to necessary shifts in a project’s direction. We have a high concentration of PhDs on our team, all of whom are available as resources for the project and are used to working together to search literature, identify solutions, and get up to speed quickly on new ideas. Likewise, our technicians are cross-trained across multiple project types, enabling them to quickly adjust.
Contact us to tell us your research goals and we’ll get back to you with how we can best support you.
