We offer 360° expertise in cardiometabolism to support academic or industrial projects: assistance in setting up projects, clinical investigation platform, scientific platforms, legal support and research promotion.
Our clinical research platforms
ICAN Clinical Investigation is a clinical investigation platform dedicated to biomedical research into cardiometabolic diseases. ICAN Clinical Investigation teams support academic and industrial sponsors in setting up their clinical trials.
ICAN Imaging combines 3 complementary activities: image acquisition with a latest-generation 1.5T cardiovascular MRI, standardized reference analysis and image management by the Core Lab, and project management including methodological, regulatory, financial and communication aspects by the ICAN IHU.
Our 6 scientific platforms
The IHU ICAN has structured, in the form of scientific platforms, a unique service offer to accelerate research on cardiometabolic diseases. These scientific platforms support the research mission of the scientific and medical community of the IHU and they are open to academic and industrial collaborations. Innovation is at the heart of their operation and their complementarity is a factor in accelerating scientific projects.
Partnerships
Located in the heart of the Pitié Salpêtrière hospital and relying on a scientific and clinical community of international stature, the IHU ICAN has forged numerous partnerships with pharmaceutical companies, from large groups to young biotechnology companies, in through research and development activities.
Support the ICAN Foundation
With the support of donors and patrons, the IHU ICAN is accelerating discoveries for the benefit of patients in metabolic diseases.
By supporting the ICAN Foundation, you participate in the development of comprehensive and tailor-made care for cardiometabolic diseases. With the support of donors and patrons, the ICAN Foundation is accelerating discoveries for the benefit of patients on metabolic diseases: diabetes, obesity, liver disease (NASH), cardiovascular diseases and inventing the medicine of tomorrow in cardiometamolism. This so-called 5P medicine: Personalized, Participatory, Predictive, Preventive and Proof is at the heart of the mobilization of ICAN experts. With your support, they will gain valuable time to advance research.
Every donation counts. Thank you for your support.
