The Rhône-Alpes-Auvergne region participates to the development of new cellular models of the blood-brain barrier, to be used by the BIP platform.

The FRM grant allows to develop a project that aims at establishing the link between adverse perinatal conditions and long-lasting alterations of the blood-brain barriers, which protect the CNS from harmful environmental agents.

The project 'Virtual Reality and Rehabilitation: HERVé' (Handicap et Expérience en Réalité Virtuelle pour les étudiants) led by Valérie Gaveau (IMPACT CRNL) received the REGION AURA PRIZE at HackingHealth Lyon (#HACKATHON - CHALLENGE#11).
