The interdisciplinary program PASREL Hub aims at supporting health innovation projects stemming from labs of Paris-Saclay University, by advising them and connecting them to relevant resources (experts, academic or industrial partners, technology transfer structures, etc.). The PASREL Hub acts upstream of support structures such as the SATTs.

To find projects to support, the PASREL Hub is launching a call for expressions of interest.

To answer it, we invite you to download and complete the form on https://www.pasrel.universite-paris-saclay.fr/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/20220523-ami-hub-pasrel.rtf

and send it to pasrel@cea.fr.

Type of supported projects

Projects supported by the PASREL Hub are projects on technological innovations in health stemming from the labs of Paris-Saclay University and destined to be transferred (clinical and/or industrial transfer). The considered technological innovations are either technologies for medical research or technologies for organizational innovation at the hospital. At least two Graduate Schools (GS) of Paris-Saclay University should take part of the project, one of them being one of 6 main GS of the PASREL Hub[1]. Inclusion of Human and Social Sciences is strongly encouraged. If needed, the PASREL Hub will help you find partners.

Proposed support

The objectives and the level of maturity of the projects will be evaluated by the PASREL Hub's project unit, which will decide whether or not to submit them to a project committee. In all cases, the project unit will give an initial feedback by phone to the applicant.

The project committee brings together experts from the PASREL Hub. It advises project leaders and opens its address book to them. It can propose that some projects benefit from M2 funding of up to 15 k€. This proposal must be justified (leverage effect of the funding, interdisciplinarity, transfer potential, involvement of human sciences). This fund will be validated by the PASREL Hub steering committee[1].

Please note that the project committee meets once a month. Its first meeting will be mid-September 2022.
