About Etisense

Etisense is a French biomedical engineering company based in Lyon, dedicated to developing and commercializing physiological monitoring instruments for laboratory animals. Originally, our journey began at the TIMC-IMAG laboratory within Grenoble-Alpes University, where a multidisciplinary team of scientists specializing in physiology and signal processing laid the groundwork. The compagny was founded on the core belief that physiological monitoring should be simple and non-invasive, directly addressing the evolving challenges of modern and ethical medical research.

Since day one, Etisense has been dedicated to pushing the boundaries of physiological monitoring. Through this ongoing effort, continuous pursuit of improvement has led to product ranges that seamlessly integrate cutting-edge textile engineering, high-performance sensors and electronics, sophisticated signal processing algorithms, and intuitive software built on the latest web technologies.

Moreover, we firmly believe that achieving truly impactful physiological monitoring demands a comprehensive, global approach. For this reason, we actively welcome and encourage collaborations – to combine our expertise with yours and bring your most ambitious projects to fruition. Let’s innovate together!

Chronological evolution of Etisense from 2018 to today

Our mission at Etisense is to revolutionize physiological monitoring through innovative connected textiles. That’s why we aim to extend the reach of this technology across a broad spectrum of applications, from animal and preclinical research to veterinary medicine and ultimately, human health and well-being.

We believe that the path to best success and innovation thrives on collaboration. Let’s talk.

Co-development Partnerships

2024-2025 – Etisense collaborates with Marshall BioResources in the development of an innovative telemetry jacket for Beagle dogs to be used in pharmacology, safety studies and toxicology assessment, as well as in veterinary medecine.

2023 – We collaborates with ERBC Group in the development of DECRO for marmosets, an highly attractive model for preclinical in vivo pharmacology, safety studies and toxicology assessment.

2020 – It collaborates with Charles River in the development of DECRO for the study of cardiac and respiratory functions in juvenile minipigs for toxicology studies.

2019Sanofi Safety-Pharmacology department and Etisense signed a co-development partnership agreement to test, give improvement input and validate scientifically DECRO in their environment.
