Research Federations bring together several research units. Their aim is to pool resources (doctoral training, computing resources, scientific documentation) or requests for resources from local authorities, and to promote scientific initiatives (...).
Technological platforms
Aix-Marseille University and its partners (CNRS, INSERM) have created the label "Technological Platforms of the Aix-Marseille site".
The aim of the labelled platforms is to provide the scientific community and the socio-economic world with state-of-the-art infrastructures for the execution of research contracts, partnership collaborations or external services
The European Research Council (ERC) promotes research of the highest quality in Europe through competitive funding and supports exploratory research by researchers in all fields, based on scientific excellence. In particular, the ERC encourages proposals that cross disciplinary boundaries, pioneering ideas that address new and emerging areas and applications that introduce unconventional and innovative approaches.
The Faculty of Science is proud to have several winners of this highly competitive grant programme working in its affiliated research centres.
