At the crossroads of Biology, Physics, Chemistry and Bioinformatics, qbio is the graduate program destined for students interested in studying Biology with a quantitative perspective founded on transdisciplinary approaches.

The qbio curriculum has been designed to be highly innovative in pedagogical terms. Discussions animated by the teachers, together with the observation and manipulation of real material and concrete difficulties will help the students to make the different subjects their own.

Qbio bases its foundations on practical project-based teaching units in the first year. The second year is focused on internships, communication and scientific writing. The background of different disciplines will be refreshed during the Bootcamp, an intensive teaching unit held at the beginning of the master.

Programme overview:

Ability to approach a biological system with a quantitative perspective, via either modelling/data analysis or state-of-the-art experimental approaches.

• Design, conduct and analyze an experimental plan in order to answer a specific biological question from a quantitative perspective
• Organize a scientific event
• Present a scientific project (oral presentation and written reports)

Career outcomes:

• Further studies: PhD in academic or private context (in France or abroad).
• Private Biotech environment: qbio gives a solid scientific base for students interested in editorial, managerial or event planning careers.
