The team have implanted the device in physiologically relevant animal models through a European collaboration with colleague Professor Jan Deprest in Leuven. (sciencedaily.com)
They will also test this approach on more clinically relevant animal models that have pituitary damage caused by radiation therapy and receive grafts in or near the pituitary gland rather than under the skin. (sciencedaily.com)
To address these different topics we are developing relevant animal models that will be used in combination with primary neuronal cultures, rodent brain slices, and brain tissues. (inmg.fr)
