Poursuites d'études

Graduating from a master degree in Physiology, epigenetics, differentiation and cancer (PhEDC) leads to a career as a research engineer in academic or private laboratories. For the students interested in a career as a research scientist in academic institutions or in private pharmaceutical industries : consecutively to a master degree in Physiology, epigenetics, differentiation and cancer (PhEDC), the students may choose to continue with a PhD program offered by a french Doctoral school or foreign universities, and related to the aforementioned fields of biology. After the obtaining of their PhD, the young researchers usually undertake one or two post-doctoral trainings of 2-3 years each, in France or foreign countries, in order to diversify their expertise. They can then apply to permanent positions as:

• Full time researchers at the national French organizations of research (“CNRS”, “INSERM”, “INRA”, “IRD” etc)
• Project managers in R&D laboratories from private biotech companies
• Researchers-teachers in French or foreign universities
