MODELS
From the preparation of the disease model, to the pharmacological analysis and the pathological evaluation, we consider everything in regards to the clinical upstream.
In other words, we try to make our research translatable to clinical practice.
Model preparation: Clear similarities with clinical onset mechanisms
Pathology: Utilizing the same pathological evaluation methods as clinical trials
