Oniris Nantes / INRAE

For nearly 20 years, the Nantes campus has been developing expertise in preclinical and clinical gene therapy. It provides the private and public scientific community with a set of platforms combining expertise and cutting-edge equipment in comparative pathology, fluorescence bio-imaging, viral vector (AAV) and animal models production. They thus provide the resources essential for the development of advanced medical applications, particularly for neurodegenerative and neuromuscular diseases of genetic origin.
APEX (UMR 703 Oniris-INRAE PAnTher) : The APEX platform is specialised in the study of healthy and diseased animal tissues and provides a wide range of scientific expertise, state-of-the-art imaging equipment and innovative pathology and bio-imaging services.
