Stéphane has extensive track record of collaboration within the ASD basic and translational research community notably on ASD pharmacology related research. His work has been published in numerous high impact peer-reviewed scientific journals.
Commenting on the appointment, Stéphane said:
“My decision to join STALICLA was motivated by the need to bring tangible advancement to how ASD is treated and real change to the lives of people living with these disorders. STALICLA’s approach to bringing personalized treatments to the neurodevelopmental disorder field is unique and potentially transformational. I’m excited to be part of this team and apply my experience to achieve this goal.”
Stéphane was an active member of STALICLA’s Scientific Advisory Board for over two years prior to taking up the new position. As Chief of Science, he will have overall responsibility to shape STALICLA’s pre-clinical development strategy. He will also be in charge of identifying and managing novel partnerships to support STALICLA’s regulatory needs.
“Stéphane’s extensive experience in the cellular and molecular underpinnings of Autism Spectrum Disorder will be invaluable to our research which focuses on the translation of biological and clinical data to develop precision therapeutics for patients with ASD. He is an incredibly talented addition to our team of experts and I wish him every success in his new role as Chief of Science.”
said Lynn Durham, STALICLA’s CEO & Founder
About STALICLA
STALICLA is a near clinical Company developing a first in class precision medicine platform to accelerate drug development for patients with Neurodevelopmental Disorders (NDD). First focus of development has been Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Today, patients diagnosed with ASD account for 1-1.5% of the world population. The condition remains a high unmet medical need.
In its Geneva and Barcelona units, STALICLA has assembled a world class team of experienced drug developers and computational biologists. The company is recognized as a disruptive player, using its DEPIv3 innovative systems biology AI platform. DEPIv3 integrates domain specific large-scale genetic, molecular, pharmacological and clinical data to define patient subgroups and to identify personalized treatments.
It is the first time that such technologies have been utilized within the field of neurodevelopment with the potential to change the direction of the specialty.
In just over 2 years, the STALICLA platform has already proven successful in expediting and de-risking drug development for a first subgroup of patients with Autism and identifying two additional subgroups.
STALICLA’s first therapeutic package - STP1 - addresses this first distinct subgroup of ASD patients estimated to 1.5 - 2M people in the EU and North America. Clinical entry for STP1 is planned in Q1 2020.
To support its platform and pipeline development, STALICLA has developed a network of top tier research and clinical partners in the US.
This has enabled STALICLA to gather one of the largest Autism patients Electronic Health Records database to date.
STALICLA is currently scaling up DEPIv3 to advance new pipelines for additional groups of patients with NDDs.

JEOL: Sales Launch of the Laser SEM System “LazEdge”25.5.2026 10:16:00 CEST | Press release
JEOL Ltd. (President & CEO: Izumi Oi) has developed the “LazEdge”, an SEM system equipped with a laser processing system, and begins sales on May 25, 2026. Cross-section preparation instruments such as the focused ion beam system (FIB system), are widely used in science and technology fields across research institutes, universities, and industries. In recent years, demand is increasing for a system that can process large-areas at a high speed, while achieving high-quality of the processed surface. “LazEdge” is an instrument integrating JEOL’s SEM with the laser technology proprietary of Hamamatsu Photonics K.K., and enables laser processing inside the specimen chamber of the electron microscope. This system enables high-quality cross-section specimens produced through high-speed, large-area processing to be transferred seamlessly to subsequent analyses, such as SEM observation, elemental analysis, and crystal orientation analysis, without exposure to the external environment. As a resu
TFG-001, A Novel 3D Neural Microtissue Cell Therapy, Demonstrates Superior Functionality and Reinnervation for Parkinson’s Disease25.5.2026 08:00:00 CEST | Press release
TreeFrog Therapeutics, a regenerative medicine biotech company developing next-generation cell therapies, today announced that it will present new preclinical data on TFG-001 at the 7th World Parkinson’s Conference. TFG-001, a 3D neural microtissue cell therapy, demonstrated rapid dopamine release and extensive graft-derived reinnervation across multiple advanced translational Parkinson’s disease models—supporting its potential as a best-in-class candidate. The critical need for reinnervation in Parkinson's disease In Parkinson's disease, an estimated 60–80% of dopaminergic neurons are already lost before motor symptoms even appear. The nigrostriatal pathway degenerates, destroying the essential wiring that connects dopamine-producing neurons to movement control. While chemical dopamine replacements (like levodopa) can manage symptoms, they cannot restore the spatial precision, feedback loops, or dynamic regulation of a healthy brain network. To achieve true functional restoration, it
