Topic Description:

The current result of the BIC project is a Support tool for commercialization: the BIC GUIDE, that guides the user through the discovery and innovative process, integrating not only technical and clinical task but also commercial and regulatory considerations. This webinar will give you a demonstration of the tool based on a concrete case.

The BIC toolset also includes a Best Practices Handbook based on experiences from TTOs in the field, a Review Tool for TTOs and a Guide for Regulatory Process. The toolset has been created in the BIC project funded by Interreg Baltic Sea Region Programme, and it is available for free from biomarker.nu.
