In collaboration with the PSL-Qlife Institute at Institut Curie in Paris, QBI announced a RFA in 2020 aimed to connect the quantitative biology worlds at UCSF and PSL-Qlife through a funding mechanism, "Quantitative Approaches for Studying Complex Biological Phenomena RFA". Four grants were awarded to collaborating researchers based at QBI and PSL-Qlife.

Co-organized by Drs. Bruno Goud and Nevan Krogan, the QBI/Qlife Collaborative RFA committee is inviting RFA recipients from QBI-UCSF and Qlife to present their progress on their collaborative proposals.
