Dim Elicit company information, Employees & Contact Information

The DIM ELICIT is the network of innovative technologies for biology in Ile-de-France region. Co-leaded by the Institut Pierre Gilles de Gennes for microfluidics (IPGG) and the Institut Pasteur, the DIM ELICIT has been labeled "Domain Of Main Interest" by the regional council of Ile-de-France for the period 2017-2020. Through calls for proposals, this programme supports Paris region research teams to design breakthrough technologies or to disseminate them for first applications in biology. It stimulates interdisciplinary collaborations between technologists and biologists, as well as partnerships with industries. These technological innovations must have a strong societal impact, particularly in the biomedical field, and generate scientific and economic value in the medium term. In order to be one of the most innovative ecosystems in the field of Technologies for Life Sciences, the DIM ELICIT ambitions to bring together research teams from all over the Ile-de-France region into one unique network. The DIM ELICIT covers 3 core technologies: • Microfluidics • Biophotonics and waves • Image analysis These 3 core technologies are divided into 4 end-user applications: • Single cell/single molecule • Organs-on-chips • Technologies for in vivo biology on animal models • High Tech / Low Cost technologies Key figures: Programme budget: EUR 10 million More than 50 projects funded since its inception, in 2017 More than 160 laboratories involved, more than 20 industrial partnerships More than 40 funded equipment 7 PhD students, 10 postdoctoral fellows, 6 engineers DIM ELICIT, “Empowering LIfe sCiences with Innovative Technologies”
