The Technology Platform of the Saint-Louis Research Institute (IRSL), part of Paris Cité University, offers research support and assistance services through its four technology centers.

It is located in the Georges Hayem Center on the grounds of Saint-Louis Hospital in Paris (10th arrondissement).

Through four complementary centers, it provides cutting-edge technological equipment, managed by a team of research engineers who make their expertise and skills available to research projects.

The Platform welcomes projects from teams at Paris Cité University, INSERM, CNRS, and the Collège de France, as well as from external research organizations (APHP, EPST, industrial companies, and start-ups).
