Cerebrasol also has considerable expertise in a number of other key areas of neuroscience, including particular experience in providing first class preclinical translational research into obesity and epilepsy. Our broad track record is demonstrated through our manuscript publications and a key strength is in developing precisely tailored research packages to target out client’s needs. Whether it’s using in vitro or in vivo electrophysiological approaches to investigate mechanism, whole animal behavior or molecular biology techniques to better understand function or side effect profiles, our research teams will provide expert consultancy in putting together the study proposal you require, and our investigators will then rapidly deliver data of the highest quality to drive forward your research programs.
