Project Description
INFRAPLUS aims to expand INFRAFRONTIER’s capacity for human disease modelling, refine its service portfolio by reducing animal usage and developing alternative cellular models, and optimise the use of resources. INFRAPLUS seeks to achieve several objectives: Developing national node capacities and expertise for providing innovative in vivo, in vitro and preclinical services, developing novel model systems and services to meet the demands of existing and novel user communities, and reducing environmental impact.
