Titre de la formation
Developmental Biology workshop
Organisateur de formation :
UPMC- Institut Curie
Public visé :
● Métiers, fonctions ou postes occupés (ingénieurs, techniciens,…)
PhD and Master 2 students
● Conditions d’accès et Pré-requis demandés aux stagiaires : connaissances, niveau d’études et/ou VAE
This course is proposed to PhD students who have previously acquired basic knowledge in Developmental
Biology ; Student selection is based on application and letter of motivation.
Objectifs :
● Objectif général de la formation
This module is an intensive laboratory and lecture course which provides a comprehensive coverage of the
paradigms, problems and technologies of modern developmental biology. Students receive training in
theoretical and experimental aspects of normal cell development as well as abnormal aspects of these
processes that may cause birth defects or diseases. They are exposed to a variety of embryonic systems,
including genetic model system (C. elegans, Drosophila, zebrafish, mouse) and well-established experimental
attributes (frog, chick) using state-of-the-art instrumentation and methodology. Lectures and seminars are
given by renowned international researchers on topics including cell specification and differentiation, pattern
formation, morphogenesis and organogenesis, intracellular signalling and developmental regulation of gene
expression The practicals are designed to reinforce some of the ideas put in the lectures and allow the
students to discuss freely with researchers.
