Latch Medical
Latch Medical is developing a platform microneedle technology, centred around opposing arrays of angled microneedles that can penetrate the outer layers of the skin for consistent needle penetration without adhesive. Pharma Latch, the drug delivery device based on the platform, is suitable for the delivery of small molecules, vaccines and biologics.
In addition to drug delivery, the platform has applications in biosensing, wearables and catheter securement.
Latch Medical is based within University College Dublin’s Belfield Innovation park, is venture-funded and in 2019 Pharma Latch was awarded a large grant by the Irish government.
