Immunomonitoring Platform
Dr. Claire Conche
Aim
The immunomonitoring platform offers tools and methodologies to study immune responses.
We are here to support you in bringing your ideas to experimental data.
We are specialized in experiments for analysis and sorting of cells by flow cytometry. We have long-standing experience in scientific research in immunology and tumor biology. Our expertise includes flow cytometry panel design, sample preparation as well as tailoring in vivo, in vitro, and ex vivo assays.
We are scientists too and are eager to support you in your research.
