Introduction

The Institute of Neuroscience of the University Joseph Fourier, Grenoble, experts in the field of brain/digestive system interaction is able to carry out research as part of your new molecule and therapeutic R&D programmes.

Evaluation of key parameters such as:

• Para-ceullular intestinal permeability
• Inflammation
• Pain
• Digestive motivity

Evaluation of active molecules and new therapy development

• In vitro: Cellular biology, molecular and biochemical biology
• In vivo: animal based experimentation models
• Clinical research
