Six core platforms
|
|
|
CLARA’s organization is based on platforms in the areas where key players in cancer research are located. Thus, CLARA is currently divided into six platforms: Grenoble, East Lyon, South Lyon, The International Agency for Research on Cancer, Saint-Etienne and Clermont-Ferrand.
Each of these platforms is built of a network of research institutions and organizations, including firms involved in oncology projects, and features multidisciplinary expertise. However, each of the various platforms has a specific focus area that is illustrated in the research projects it is involved in.
This table in no way intends to give a restrictive view of the research activities carried out at the above-mentioned platforms. Furthermore, all of the projects currently underway are conducted at several sites and bring together researchers from several platforms.
