Our Story

Cellorama LLC was founded in 2020 by Ranan Aktas, MD.

 

During her 20 years of researching liver cancer, she came across serious shortcomings in lab products and protocols which failed to protect precious samples; caused loss of data, time and money.

 

Dr. Aktas has made it her mission to design inventions to address the problems she and many colleagues struggled with.

 

These innovations are now available for use in 2D and 3D cell culture labs,with the potential to significantly improve drug discovery and screening studies

in hospitals, universities, biotech and pharma.
