BioProbe
Since 2022, BioProbe has been an Interdisciplinary Programme of the Université Paris-Saclay. Its objective is to federate, animate, and structure around 50 teams and platforms from 24 laboratories that lead innovative projects in chemistry and physics, focusing on the study of biological processes in situ within their complex environments. These projects may have practical applications in diagnostics and imaging.
BioProbe's goals are aligned with three pillars: Research, Innovation, and Education. They are detailed as follows:
- Promote interdisciplinary fundamental research, including innovative methods of detection, analysis, and imaging for the quantitative exploration at the molecular level of biological processes
- Build new consortia capable of targeting funding opportunities by leveraging the BioProbe network
- Strengthen partnerships between academic and industrial environments, fostering innovation, in diagnostics in particular, and accelerate the transfer of technology from fundamental research to clinical applications and biotechnologies.
- Train young individuals to work at the interface of chemistry, physics, and biology, without compromising solid disciplinary skills, to meet the demands of a rapidly evolving job market.
