Parcours Structural biology of pathogens 2e année

Présentation et objectifs

The objectives of the 2 year Structural biology of pathogens master program are to train the enrolled students in the complementary fields of structural biology, biochemistry, molecular and cellular biophysics. The students will learn how to integrate the modern approaches of integrative structural biology, which combine information of various length and time scales to get a global understanding of a biological process. At the end of this master program, the students will have acquired a global understanding of the experimental approaches undertaken to structurally characterize biomolecules and they will know about the potentials of these approaches for the study of biological systems. In particular they will be trained to start a PhD project in the field of integrated structural biology.

The first year of the master program (Molecular and cellular biology program) is meant to complete the general scientific background of the enrolled students in various fields of biology (cell biology, genetics and biochemistry) (first semester of the master 1st year's program) ; introduce the students to their specific master 2nd year program by offering them specialized courses (semester 8 of the master 1st year's program) ; introduce the students to a research project, from its conception to its experimental undertaking and up to the report of the obtained results by an oral presentation as well as a written report (module of 18 ECTS during the semester 7 of the master 1st year's program; internship of 2 months in a research laboratory or in a R&D laboratory from a private company) ; allow the students to develop their written and oral skills for the search of internships and/or jobs as well as for the presentation of research projects and experimental results (mandatory modules of 3 ECTS Communication tools - and 18 ECTS during the first semester of the master 1st year's program, 2 months internship during the semester 10).

Poursuite d'études

 Graduating from a master degree in Integrated structural biology 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 Integrated structural biology, the students may choose to continue with a PhD program depending from a French doctoral school or foreign universities and related to the aforementioned fields of biology. Consecutively to their PhD, the young researchers undertake one or two post-doctoral trainings of 2-3 years each, usually in 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
  • Part time researchers, part time teachers in French or foreign universities
