The PRECy project (Platform for Radiobiological Experiments from CYRCé) foresees the use of a 16-25 MeV energy proton beam produced by the recently installed TR24 cyclotron at the Institut Pluridisciplinaire Hubert Curien (IPHC) of Strasbourg for biological tissues irradiation. The second exit port of the cyclotron will be used for this application along with a combination magnet. The platform will consist of up to 3 or 5 experimental stations linked to beamlines in a dedicated 15x13m area next to the cyclotron vault. One of the beamlines will receive proton beams of a few cm diameter at intensities up to 100 nA. The status of the design of the first beam line is presented. The characterization of the proton beam parameters has been performed using the quad scan method. TraceWin and COSY Infinity codes allowed simulating the beam envelopes and defining the electromagnetic equipment that will compose the beamline.
