Missions

Through its activities, Idiap pursues three main objectives:

• Conducting fundamental research projects at the highest level in its preferred areas, thus taking its place among the best on a national, European and global scale. Idiap benefits from a wide network of partners internationally and works actively with large universities, public and private research centres, etc.
  

• Developing recruitment by helping its interns discover the world of research, by welcoming talented young researchers preparing their PhD and by providing a number of courses at EPFL and in-house.
  

• Ensuring technology transfer through the widest dissemination possible of its research results in the scientific community, but also by forging close ties with the world of industry.
