Integrative molecular and cellular biology (ImcBio)
Presentation
An unprecendeted training program focused on Integrative Molecular and Cellular Biology, gathering:
- 4 host institutes (IGBMC, IBMC, IBMP and GMGM), which covers all areas of molecular and cellular biology at the levels of molecular factors, genes, cells and organisms from model systems to diseases
- 3 laboratories of excellence (LabEx): INRT (Integrative biology: Nuclear dynamics, Regenerative and Translational medicine), MitoCross (Mitochondria-nucleus Cross-talk) and NetRNA (Networks of regulatory RNAs across kingdoms and dynamical responses to biotic and abiotic stresses)
- Cutting-edge technological resources of national infrastructure in health biology
- The insectarium I2MC, an equipment of excellence (EquipEx)
- High-level research projects in a stimulating and interdisciplinary environment
