SBM Team: Skin Biology and Microenvironment

Les recherches de l'équipe

The Skin Biology and Microenvironment team is interested in the role of the microenvironment in the regulation of physiological and pathological processes (skin ageing, cancer, inflammation, oxidative stress, etc.) through the development of original study models that respect the cellular microenvironment and that are closer to skin physiology.

Keywords :

Oxygen, physioxia, oxidative stress, skin aging, 3D models, reconstructed epidermis
