Microneedles are tiny self-administered patches that offer a convenient and painless way to deliver medicines across the skin barrier. They outperform oral methods and can potentially replace hypodermic needles in many applications. Thermostable microneedles do not rely on costly and complex cold chains, which can improve global access to essential medications. Until we achieve regulatory approval of microneedles we are stuck with hypodermic needles.

Over 60% of kids fear of needles. Trypanophia spans across age groups. Painless microneedles can make medical experiences anxiety-free.

The microarray patch is poised to transform drug delivery, painlessly and reliably releasing medicinal compounds across the skin barrier.

Thermostable microneedles will cut cold chain and shipping costs, providing safe, equitable global access to vaccines and other medicines.

It’s estimated that most kids, up to 50% of adolescents, 30% of young adults and 16% of adults, have needle phobia.
