Institut de génétique

La recherche à l'Institut de génétique porte sur l'élucidation des causes moléculaires et génétiques des maladies héréditaires et et de particularités génétiques chez les animaux domestiques et de rente. Nous proposons certains tests génétiques issus de nos recherches en tant que service pour différentes espèces.
