[REPORT SUMMARY] Development and assessment of natural and recombinant autonomous parvoviruses as anticancer agents
Some autonomous parvoviruses display a remarkable antitumor activity in rodents. Yet, in several instances, parvoviruses are potent enough to prevent tumors from developing. This led us to consider the production of recombinant parvoviruses to efficiently express anticancer tr...

[REPORT SUMMARY] New protocol for in vitro assessment of neurotoxicity using conventional electrophysiology or a 3-D microelectrode array
We developed a protocol for in vitro testing of neurotoxicity in freshly cut brain slices. Within the scientific and industrial community the need for better, novel tests of in vitro neurotoxicity is recognized. Electrophysiology is a novel, little explored source of neurotoxi...
