France Life Imaging - Lyon

About France Life Imaging - Lyon

Historically, the hub was geographically located in the Lyon region, but since the beginning of 2025, it has expanded to include the In Vivo Imaging Auvergne (IVIA) imaging platform located in the Clermont region. Under the supervision of the Claude Bernard University Lyon 1 (UCBL1), the Lyon hub relies on an internationally renowned environment in terms of biomedical and technological research in diagnostic and therapeutic medical imaging. Imaging research primarily revolves around multimodal imaging platforms with equipment installed at CERMEP on the Lyon-Est medical campus, at CREATIS on the UCBL / INSA scientific and technological campus, as well as in Clermont-Ferrand with the IVIA platform. CERMEP has the IBISA label and IVIA has been labeled IBISA since 2018. This node offers the scientific community a wide range of services based on its equipment and an exceptional clinical environment, complemented by a national veterinary school, VetAgroSup, hosting a private contract research center.
