Researchers from academia, industry and SMEs may apply for several service categories including:

  1. disease models,

  2. cutting-edge imaging and structural biology technologies,

  3. biomarker research and development,

  4. new therapeutic solutions,

  5. complex clinical trial design and support,

  6. personalised oncology implementation pipelines and recommendations and
