Viral gene delivery, stereotactic and surgical manipulations

The INBC core as well as members of the steering committee can provide expert help in this field. The core is equipped with state-of-the-art surgery stations and stereotaxic devices:

• Kopf 900 small animal stereotaxic with digital display read out

• Kopf 900SD NEUROSTAR motorized small animal stereotaxic

Experimental deep brain stimulation (DBS)

Microsurgical and stereotaxic implantation of stimulation electrodes is the core expertise and foundation for experimental DBS of Prof. Dr. K. Kiening's group. The Kiening group emphasizes on experimental settings with clinical relevance to transfer preclinical data to patient care.
