Technology platforms

ULB has technology platforms which gather expertise and equipment that it makes available to private companies as well as to its own researchers. Each platform consists in teams from various laboratories, research institutes, or faculties, that can offer integrated services by combining cutting-edge equipment, technological expertise, and interdisciplinary scientific expertise. ULB currently has 12 technology platforms, most of which are active in the fields of life sciences and engineering.
