Master's in Health Biology - Course: Development, Inflammation, Regeneration

The course of the Master 2 "DIR: Development, Inflammation and Regeneration" focuses on the interface between science and health with a strong focus around mineralized tissues. It is open to students from various courses who have obtained the first year of the Master (M1) or equivalent (PIR, etc.). This Master 2 course offers a wide range of experimental models: cellular and molecular biology; immunology; developmental genetics; biomaterials; experimental surgery or cell therapy. The student acquires expertise in the analysis of the fundamental mechanisms of morphogenesis, immune defense and destruction of tissues and finally in tissue engineering. This course prepares professionals for health innovation and an introduction to translational research approaches.

The English masterclass "DIR: Development, Inflammation and Regeneration" aims at training research students from diverse backgrounds and areas of science, health, veterinary and engineering schools. The program introduces a panel of experimental strategies in cellular biology, physiology, pathology and biotherapy. The Master will introduce cellular (mesenchymal stem cells) and molecular determinants of the calcified tissues (bone, cartilage, tooth, ectopic calcifications), its analysis from nano-scale to anatomical level including biomechanics. Integrated cell biology will be presented in connection with the domains of developmental biology, pharmacology, immunology and genetics with a special focus on inflammation. The theme of tissue engineering and biomaterials will introduce other scientific interactions with physics, chemistry, in interface with industry.
