Signing of a research cooperation framework agreement with Thermo Fisher

Thermo Fisher is a world leader in equipment, analytical instruments, reagents and consumables, software and services designed to meet the complex analytical challenges of clinical research, diagnostics and laboratories.

The Institut Pasteur and Thermo Fisher recently concluded a two-year agreement to facilitate and provide a framework for partnerships between the two entities by establishing a series of general rules for collaboration.

The research cooperation framework agreement with Thermo Fisher lays down terms for:

  • the development of new joint research projects. A dedicated Project Agreement will be drawn up for each new project, stipulating the terms for the implementation of the project;
  • the evaluation of new Thermo Fisher products that have not yet been brought to market.

Under the agreement, Thermo Fisher has special partner status, giving it a right of first review on Institut Pasteur inventions in various fields (to be defined).

The partnership will be governed by a steering committee composed of representatives from Thermo Fisher and the Institut Pasteur.

The diagram below summarizes the broad principles of the partnership.
