IRSD

The general objectives of the IRSD as a research institute are:

To develop new strategies for the diagnosis and treatment of digestive diseases.

To provide a productive, and innovative training environment.

To foster collaborations and interactions within the institute and outside of the institute.

The strategy is a comprehensive approach of digestive health: physiology, physiopathology, medical and molecular bacteriology, pharmacology, cell biology, epidemiology, immunology, neurosciences, genetics.

Facilities include experimental surgery and organoïds.

Intestinal physiopathology, host-bacteria interactions, antibioresistances.
