Title of the article

A major advance in biological investigation models has come from our ability to cultivate complex multicellular models with associated cell diversity and higher order architecture: organoids. However, this technology raises many technological challenges. The goal of this project is to federate the research effort on organoids in the West. This project will revolve around the networking of technological core facilities in biology-health-agronomy of Biogenouest network. An identification of the strengths and needs will make it possible to establish a core facility skills development strategy to best meet the needs related to organoids.

Overall objective of the project

  • To federate the emergence coming from multiple UMR of the great West.
  • Transfer and consolidate specific know-how within each core facility (sustainability).
  • Mutualize (efficiency / control of expenditure).

Specific objectives

  • Consolidate cutting-edge know-how in the West> organoids
