Following the final decision of France BioImaging Institutional Committee on October 29^th, 2019, we are delighted to announce that a new node is joining France BioImaging: the Bretagne-Loire Node.

The new Bretagne-Loire Node is composed of four cellular and tissue imaging platforms: APEX, H2P2, MicroPICell and MRic-of the Bioimaging axis of GIS Biogenouest and research and development teams (belonging to IGDR, Numecan, Cesam, Inria-Rennes, PAnTher@Oniris, LS2N) that support the activities of these platforms.

Located in Nantes and Rennes, the four platforms have the IBiSA certification and their expertise in life imaging and pathological anatomy are complementary.

The mission of the node is to provide the latest technological and methodological advances in microscopy for an integrated understanding of cellular and tissue activities in particular for preclinical research. 

The Bretagne-Loire Node has expertise in technology transfer and translational research and benefits from a privileged scientific environment due to its affiliation with the University Hospital Centres and the Nantes Veterinary School.

This integration is completing the node candidate evaluation process started in 2016.

Welcome to the FBI Bretagne-Loire Node!
