Ten Bio has officially joined the James Hutton Institute’s Dundee campus, marking a new chapter in its mission to advance human-relevant dermatology research. The move supports Ten Bio’s continued growth and fosters collaboration with one of Scotland’s leading scientific communities.

As regulatory momentum builds and new human-relevant technologies emerge, the conversation is shifting. The question is no longer if we can replace animal testing in skin research — but how fast. This article explores why models like TenSkin™ offer a scalable, scientifically robust alternative that’s already reshaping preclinical research.

As regulators move away from animal testing, clear validation frameworks are needed to support alternatives. Explant models like TenSkin™ offer a human-relevant solution for preclinical skin research, improving predictability and reproducibility.
