The technologies mastered in the Institute of Cardiovascular Research offer
uniques opportunity of fundamental, experimental and pre-clinical
investigations in physiological as well as in controled patholoical
conditions
Initially tailored for cells of cardiovascular origin, our methods can
fit any kind of cells, such as cancer cell lines, nervous cells, ...
Pharmacology - Drug Testing
- multiparametric phamacology of membrane receptors, ion channels and transporters
- investigation of drugs acting on cellular metabolism, signaling
and ultrastructure
- extended cytotoxicity tests: anticancer drugs, immunosuppressors,
and much more ...
