The Future of Healthcare is Wherever You Are

Terrestrial imagines a needle-free, refrigeration-free future of administering therapeutics — from the comfort of your home, or anywhere you go.

Our Mission:

Mapping a future where anyone can benefit from next-gen therapies in a convenient, patient-friendly way.

Seeking to dismantle barriers to therapeutics use, we work to overcome the limitations of conventional needle administration and create products that are just as effective, but also offer a vastly improved patient experience. That's why we designed the microarray patch (MAP) platform to be needle-free, virtually pain-free, easy-to-use, and flexible with a wide range of payloads.

Sound audacious? It is. We’ve got the research to back it up. Join us as we improve human health worldwide by radically improving the patient experience, and expanding access to next-gen therapeutics.

We are a group of life scientists, engineers, and entrepreneurs challenging ourselves and others to create breakthrough biomedical innovation, and make it available to people everywhere.
