About us
Our platform offers state-of the art large histotechnological laboratory with a specialized team. We are available for collaborative research. Many projects are currently ongoing on animal models of infectious diseases, cancer, immunotherapy or inflammation with internal or external research teams. Individuals wishing to develop collaborative research efforts are encouraged to contact us when developing research projects. Optimal results are obtained when the staff is contacted as early as possible in the conception of the in vivo part of the project; this allows us to help determine how histological approach can best support the research aim.
