Neuronautix · Services

Consulting and R&D services for preclinical data infrastructure

Neuronautix delivers two complementary engagement modes: scientific consulting for teams who need expert help on HCM, behavioral analysis, and FAIR metadata; and R&D co-development for partners who want to build new methods, algorithms, and tools — not just analyse existing data. Pre-packaged offerings live on the Products page.

R&D co-development

We develop new methods — not only analyse data

Through our flagship collaboration with the LIRMM lab (CNRS, Montpellier) led by Dr. Konstantin Todorov, Neuronautix runs active research workstreams that generate novel tools and publishable methods. Companies and consortia can join these as co-funders, co-developers, or licensees.

Workstream

Ontology-constrained LLM navigation

Using the Home-Cage Monitoring Ontology (HCMO) and related vocabularies to constrain LLM reasoning over preclinical knowledge graphs — increasing efficacy, reducing hallucination, and enabling provenance-aware scientific Q&A.

Workstream

Neuro-AI & stat-AI embeddings

Developing embedding methods that combine neuroscience priors and statistical structure to generate new scientific knowledge from preclinical behavioral and physiological datasets.

Workstream

Multi-agent scientific reasoning

LangGraph-based scientific agent squads with human-in-the-loop checkpoints, applied to literature synthesis, evidence mapping, metadata curation, and Virtual Control Group construction.

Service areas

Scientific consulting from experiment design to reusable data

We combine behavioral neuroscience expertise, Home-Cage Monitoring knowledge, FAIR metadata strategy, and practical software development to help laboratories move from fragmented experimental outputs to interpretable, reusable research assets.

HCM strategy

Home-Cage Monitoring Systems

Independent support for comparing, selecting, deploying, and documenting commercial, DIY, video-based, sensor-based, and multimodal Home-Cage Monitoring platforms.

Analysis

Behavioral & Physiological Data Analysis

Workflows for behavioral tracking, physiological recordings, ECG and HRV analysis, circadian metrics, longitudinal activity, and multimodal alignment.

FAIR data

Metadata Management & FAIR Data Consulting

Practical metadata schemas, provenance structures, dataset documentation, and FAIR-ready workflows for Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable preclinical data.

Software

Scientific Software & Reproducible Pipelines

Custom scripts, notebooks, data transformation tools, project prototypes, dashboards, and open-source workflows designed around real laboratory constraints.

Semantics

Ontologies & Knowledge Infrastructure

Ontology-aware metadata structuring, semantic mapping, controlled vocabularies, SHACL-style validation concepts, and knowledge graph preparation.

Transfer

Training & Workshops

Training for Home-Cage Monitoring, behavioral analysis, metadata management, FAIR principles, AI-assisted scientific workflows, and reproducible research practices.

Workflow

A practical process for complex preclinical datasets

Each project is scoped around the scientific question, available systems, data quality, analysis needs, metadata requirements, and the level of transfer expected by the research team.

Deliverables

Outputs your team can inspect, reuse, and maintain

Neuronautix focuses on deliverables that make research work easier after the project ends: clear comparisons, reproducible analyses, structured metadata, readable documentation, and practical training material.

  • System comparison and selection notes
  • Analysis notebooks, scripts, and workflow documentation
  • Data cleaning, visualization, and quality-control outputs
  • Metadata schemas and data dictionaries
  • FAIR documentation and provenance templates
  • Publication-ready figures, reports, and training material

Tools and systems

Support across established and emerging research workflows
