CENTURI multi-engineering platform
About

One major objective of CENTURI is to involve engineers in the experimental and conceptual challenges of systems biology, while developing industrial partnerships.

This objective resulted in the creation of CENTURI multi-engineering platform, as well as events and programmes dedicated to engineering students.

Overview of the platform

Submitted projects

Ongoing projects

Publications

CENTURI multi-engineering platform has been created to provide additional expertise in image processing, bioinformatics, optics/biophotonics, mechatronics, microfluidics, software/data management and neuroscience/data analytics. Our engineers are here to help and advise the CENTURI community in their daily research questions and/or participate in longer term projects. By organising events and connecting different CENTURI labs, the platform hopes to build a strong cooperative spirit and facilitate the dissemination of information between the teams and the platform.

Our process

You have an engineering question or an issue that you canno’t solve with your platform: meet us at the open desk or contact us directly.

One of our engineers will be assigned to you and will guide you through our request management process.

We strongly encourage you to contact us as early as possible during the project. We can advise you on the acquisition of experimental data in order to facilitate future analyses.

Our services are free of charge.

We can also help you recruit and supervise an engineer working in your team and dedicated entirely to your projects.

Please contact us for more information.

Next event

Coming soon !

Join our Slack channels

You can now join our CENTURI multi-engineering platform Slack account to discuss with us and with the CENTURI community :
