History of the Center
The Centre was established in 2014 with 5 teams and has grown thereafter, with 2 additional teams joining the Centre in 2015 and 2 teams in 2019.
The centre includes teams from several universities within the Université de Paris.
The centre has a unique position in France due to a critical mass of researchers, the excellent quality of its teams and international partnerships, the size and quality of cohorts managed by the teams in the Centre and its involvement in training through research.
The Centre is the only public health research centre to have an International Associated Laboratory (Laboratoire international associé [LIA]) status with a North American University (Columbia University, NYC).
The Headquarters of the CRESS are located in the Hôtel-Dieu hospital, Paris.
