Each year, the Marseille institute for rare diseases (MarMaRa) proposes a wide range of calls for projects and offers to support the research and training projects of up-and-coming students or PhD students, teacher-researchers, researchers, engineers and associations in the field. We usually release two calls for projects, in spring and in autumn. Since the inauguration of the Institute in January 2020, and thanks to the commitment of our members, we have been able to support a wealth of initiatives in different and complementary disciplines, including biology, physics and human and social sciences.
