Bilateral Contracts with Industry
The industrial connections of the Dracula team have been made through the "Modeling of the immune response" project. Contacts have been established with both large pharmaceutical companies (Sanofi-Pasteur and Merial) and SMEs (AltraBio and The Cosmo Company). The now finished ANR PrediVac project included the two aforementioned SMEs and therefore strengthened the ties between Dracula and its industrial local ecosystem. The same consortium applied to ANR grants on close research topics in 2016. Furthermore, the ties with The Cosmo Company have been strenghened through a joint CIFRE PhD (see below).
