Laboratory activity
Our laboratory is located at Saint Louis Hospital in Paris. We are working on the identification of new targets for the diagnosis and the therapy of skin diseases. Monoclonal antibodies are essential tools for determining the identification of these molecules. Dr. Armand Bensussan is the president of the French Association of Immunology, he is a member of the International HCDM (Human Cell Differentiation Molecules) Council.
Research activities
1. Physiopathology of Cutaneous T cell Lymphoma & Receptors of Innate Immunity
2. Oncogenesis of Melanoma
3. Epithelial pathophysiology, stem cells & tissue repair
Techniques available
- Monoclonal antibody production in mice
- Antibodies characterization
- Multi-colour flow cytometry
- Immunization with transfected cells
