EurOPDX Research Infrastructure Trans-national access (TA) program
Trans-national access (TA) offers academic and industry researchers from Europe and worldwide the opportunity to remotely access the PDX models, services, and expertise of the EurOPDX Research Infrastructure (RI). As part of the EDIReX EU grant, three TA calls were launched between 2018 and 2020.

Applications for Trans-national Access (TA) grants are evaluated by an independent committee of experts, and projects are selected according to scientific excellence and impact through an objective scoring system. Users whose projects are selected for funding will still need to sign a Material Transfer Agreement (MTA) with the owners of the chosen PDX model(s) - this will be facilitated by the EurOPDX RI management team.
Three types of free-of-charge access to PDX resources are available through each of the 6 infrastructure nodes of the EurOPDX RI:
SAMPLE = shipment of frozen PDX tumour samples to selected users.
DEPOSIT = deposition of PDX models into the repository and infrastructure biobank.
TEST = the performance of in vivo experiments on PDX models with the users’ treatment of choice.
