To carry out their activities, Research Teams of the Frédéric Joliot Institute for Life Sciences have developed high-profile technological platforms in many areas : biomedical imaging, structural biology, metabolomics, High-Throughput screening, level 3 microbiological safety laboratory...
Within the Institute, the "Funding Research and Technology Transfer" team is at your disposal to identify the scientists and the skills you need to set up a joint project, to define the terms of a collaboration contract or study. Whether you are an academic, a SME or an industrialist, our team informs and advices you about the possibilities of consortium assembly, technology transfer, patent licensing or use of our platforms. The team is also at the disposal of the researchers of the institute to accompany them in achieving their valorization objectives.

In the context of a collaboration with the I²BM institute, researchers from SCBM have designed micellar vectors for targeting and visual delineation of tumors.
Compact polymerized polydiacetylene-micelles with "stealth" zwitterionic surface coating were assembled and tested in a murine xenograft model of breast cancer. In vivo fluorescence imaging indicated accumulation in the tumor area and histological studies revealed predominant uptake of the micelles at the margins of the tumor, thereby allowing the delineation of its volume.
Stable and compact zwitterionic polydiacetylene micelles with tumor-targeting properties. Theodorou I, Anilkumar P, Lelandais B, Clarisse D, Doerflinger A, Gravel E, Duconge F, Doris E. 2015, 51, 14937-14940.
