Earlier In-House
Proof-of-Concept

Avoid CRO queues and launch quickly, generating defensible POC and data in just 90 days.


Earlier Cost Certainty 

Keep operations lean and allocate budget predictably within the fixed costs of the Seed-to-Scale program.


Keep the Science Close to Home

Founders maintain control of study direction, data analysis, and real-time decision making.


Integrated Study Environments

Studies are conducted by experienced technicians in dedicated space with core equipment for POC data.

These are the motivators that led Mispro to build something new.

Founder-Scientists Running Lean

Seed-to-Scale was designed specifically for teams like yours. If the profile below sounds familiar, you're in the right place.

You have seed funding secured
You have capital in the bank and a defined proof-of-concept program to run,  but no team to run it yet.

Fundraising is on the horizon
You need to generate defensible, high-quality data fast, while managing your initial funding responsibly.

You have defined in vivo requirements
PK/PD and efficacy studies with mouse models, with or without IVIS imaging, up to 20 cages.

You want to stay close to your science
You stay in control of the study and the results, not hand it off and wait for a report from an outsourced team.

Three Steps to
Your First Cohort

Seed-to-Scale is a structured program designed for companies with defined proof-of-concept timelines. Here's how the process works.

01

Confirm Fit

We work with you to validate seed-stage funding, a defined proof-of-concept study, and alignment with cohort timing.

02

Plan Your Session

Together we define study scope and cage counts, session blocks, and your cohort start date.

03

Begin Seed-to-Scale

You enter a structured cohort and begin generating proof-of-concept data in a research-ready, diligence-first environment.

Start. Prove. Scale.
