Translational Research

In order to promote new clinically-oriented collaborative projects within the Maladies Rares Marseille community, the MarMaRa institute is extending its "incentive action" funding to translational research projects. The aim of this "incentive action - translational research project" call is to support new, innovative, high-quality projects based on collaboration between a MarMaRa-affiliated research structure and a clinical department or laboratory in an AP-HM hospital.

The Translational Research call concerns any research project involving healthy subjects or patients, including epidemiological, pathophysiological or social science aspects.

To encourage this new call, particular attention will be paid to new projects and new teams/new partnerships.

Each project can obtain up to €30,000 for a maximum duration of 12 months.
