About us

We bring value added liquid biopsy technology to empower clinicians, researchers, and industry in the fight against cancer.

SmartCatch consists of a versatile team combining research and clinical practice.

Founded in September 2016, SmartCatch is a spin-off of the CNRS jointly founded by an academic team specialized in micro/nanotechnologies from the Laboratory of Architecture and Analysis of Systems (LAAS-CNRS) and urology surgeons of the University Institute of Cancer (IUCT) and Montauban Uropole, in Toulouse.
