EXFIMO - Experimental Fish Models

EXFIMO logo by Cyril Henard

 

 

 

 

 

The EXFIMO group focuses on fish as experimental animal models. We primarily use rainbow trout and zebrafish in our work. We aim to develop new tools for the aquaculture industry as well as understanding immunology from a basic scientific point of view.

We wish to expand our zebrafish model to include relevant scientific areas - not only related to fish.
