PHENOMIN now offers a full line of 16S metagenomics services including fecal DNA extraction, 16S rRNA gene sequencing, and informatics analysis. 16S sequencing is today the most cost effective approach to reveal bacterial diversity in your sample.
Unlike most suppliers, our offer is distinctive by its advanced meta-analyses of your results including alpha & beta biodiversity, heatmap, clustering (MDS + Bray-Curtis, Jacquard,…), LEfSe analysis.

A first guide on the common rules for organizing and operating committees was published in French in March 2018. It is now published in English.
Following the transposition into French law of the Directive 2010/63 / EU, ethics committees became competent authorities in charge of the ethical evaluation of projects. As such, the Director General of Research and Innovation of the Ministry of Research asked the French association GIRCOR to draft reference documents on ethics committees. It commits to harmonising the functioning of the committees to ensure uniform treatment of the projects evaluated and to affirm their position as a forum for dialogue and reflection.
The English version of this guide will facilitate exchanges and harmonisation with the other countries of the European Union.
INFRAFRONTIER sponsors ‘Young Investigator Travel Grants’ to attend and contribute to the INFRAFRONTIER / IMPC Stakeholder Meeting which focuses on advancing Rare Disease research and gene therapy applications with animal models
Registration and Travel Grants
Abstract submission by Email to proposals@infrafrontier.eu until 15 October 2018
Notification of selected applicants by 30 October 2018
To their second joint Stakeholder Meeting on December 3 and 4 2018, Infrafrontier and IMPC invite medical research experts from all over the world to discuss the advances in RareDiseases and GeneTherapy using animal models.
More than 50 mouse Rare Disease models have been generated by PHENOMIN as clinicians can use our data catalogue and IMPC data to find relevant mouse models to human disease by orthologous gene and by shared phenotypic features.
The Stakeholder Meeting provides an excellent opportunity to support a better alignment of INFRAFRONTIER / IMPC platforms with current Rare Disease research and personalised medicine initiatives, and supports interactions with human genetics centers and clinical consortia. New partnerships can support the rapid impact of mouse functional genomics analyses on the understanding of human genetic variation and disease, and the translation into diagnostic and therapeutic approaches.
Join us !
Understanding consequences of gene variants in other species may be of importance for human health and disease; this is the goal of IMPC by producing and phenotyping knockout mouse lines for 20 000 genes.
In a new study in the journal Conservation Genetics researchers form PHENOMIN & IMPC have found another intriguing use of mouse data.
"...To date, the IMPC has generated and characterised 5186 mutant lines. One-third of the lines have been found to be non-viable and over 300 new mouse models of human disease have been identified thus far. While current bioinformatics efforts are focused on translating results to better understand human disease processes, IMPC data also aids understanding genetic function and processes in other species. "
Cette année, pour la 44 ieme édition qui se tient du 13 au 15 juin 2018, l'association a décidé de traiter le thème des “limites de l’expérimentation animale au sens large”.
Rencontrez nous !
PHENOMIN présentera, sous forme de communication orale,
PHENOMIN-TAAM s'expose à l'AFSTAL ! Venez nous rencontrer au stand n° 70 et discuter vos projets avec nous, nous pourrions avoir des solutions pour vous !
Venez nombreux !

Regulatory training course in laboratory animals research –rodent specificity
CNRS and CELPHEDIA provide 57 hours training sessions (over 7 days), designed for Anglophone students and researchers having a direct scientific responsibility for experimentation on animals. The teaching will focus on regulatory and legislative initiatives in animal experimentation in accordance with European and national regulation. It will also provide basic knowledge on the handling and use of laboratory rodents (animal welfare, ethics, cognition and behaviour, pain and stress, anaesthesia, analgesia, euthanasia, pathologies, zootechnics, anatomy, physiology, genetic engineering, phenotyping, imaging, alternative methods, biostatistics), as well as the selection criterion of an animal model.

ESLAV, ECLAM, AAALAC International and SECAL for this 2-day conference, will explore current challenges and expectations improving quality laboratory animal care and the translatability of experimental animal studies.
The Conference will focus on translatability of animal research, including advances on laboratory animal science, and quality issues identified during AAALAC International site visits. A representative from the European Commission will be there to share the EC's perspective.
I.Goncalves (DVM), veterinarian from PHENOMIN-ICS, belongs to the scientific comitee for 2018.
Looking forward to seeing you in Barcelona !

It is now well recognized that the microbiota plays an important role in the development, immunity and physiology of its mammalian host. Considerable progress has been made in identifying microbes and microbial metabolites that modulate host functions, maintain health or drive pathology. This knowledge has been derived from the characterization of microbiota during development and adult life, during health and disease, using animal and mechanical models to decipher the complex interactions between microbes and host, and to infer causal relationships.
The aim of this meeting is to bring together the specialists of the field to discuss novel insights into the microbiota-host mutualism and parasitism, and focus on the new models and approaches to explore this relationship.
G.Pavlovic, from PHENOMIN-ICS will present data regarding microbiota evaluation in mouse models.
In the near future, these advances will lead to the development of preventive and therapeutic strategies based on microbiota manipulation or the use of microbial metabolites, and allow the microbiota to become a key diagnostic component in precision medicine.

La 22e édition du Congrès AFC se déroulera du 17 au 19 octobre 2018 au Palais des Congrès à Lyon.
Pour cette édition, le Comité local a sélectionné des thématiques fortement représentées dans le tissu scientifique Lyonnais. Tout d’abord l’Immunologie des maladies infectieuses portée par les équipes du CIRI (Centre International de Recherche en Infectiologie) et de Bioaster mais aussi l’immunologie associée au cancer développée au CRCL (Centre de Recherche en Cancérologie de Lyon).
Lors de ce 22e Congrès AFC, le Comité local met aussi l’accent sur de nouvelles thématiques autour du Microbiote, tant en matière d’avancées technologiques que de thérapie.
Les ateliers pratiques se dérouleront sur la journée du 16 octobre avec un nouveau format en cours de préparation. Les posters seront mis en avant lors du cocktail de bienvenue et c’est les participants du congrès qui détermineront le gagnant du prix poster. Les industriels auront leur session de présentation des nouveautés.
PHENOMIN-CIPHE participera activement pour présenter l'avancée de projets en cours, et les toutes dernières données en la matière. Venez à notre rencontre !
