PIXANIM

It allows the functional exploration of the different biological systems of an animal, from the entire animal to the biomolecule, including all intermediate scales.

With its infrastructure, the platform is able to accommodate a variety of animal models such as large farmed mammals and birds; and to accommodate over long periods (several months) mammalian (sheep, goats, pigs) and avian (hens, quails) models for dynamic studies over time, with approval.

The platform also offers facilities and equipments for the practice of interventional physiology, in similar conditions to those present in hospitals, and can receive any team wishing to work in its own field of expertise.

The PIXANIM platform offers different tools of in vivo investigation, favouring non-invasive approaches for dynamic and/or ex vivo studies, from the entire animal to the molecule via all intermediate scales (organs, tissues, pro- and eukaryotic cells, fluids), in order to finely phenotype all the biological systems constituting the animal and to characterise the molecular mechanisms explaining these phenotypes.
