Animal facilities (PLEHTA/EOPS/PHExMAR)

Platform

Description

Our platform includes animal facilities spread over three sites near biology and health research laboratories with partial specificities: - Infectious (PLEHTA - Platform for Experimentation and High Animal Technology / Institut Pasteur de Lille); - Large Mammals and Metabolism (conventional multispecies animal facility (Mouse, Rat, Rabbit, Gerbil, Pig, Sheep) and EOPS - zone free from specific pathogenic organisms / University Hospital Campus); - Fishes and Amphibians (PHExMAR - Hosting and Experimentation Platform for Aquatic and Rodent Models / Campus Cité Scientifique). They host various animal models for the study of infectious, neurodegenerative, metabolic, cancerous and inflammatory pathologies. Open to both the industrial world and the academic world, we offer to meet your needs according to your project.
