Espace de travail pour la CRT 6 "Éducations à" 

This page includes guidebooks explaining how to write both CVs (resume) and Cover Letters in English. 

English CVs and Cover Letters differ from French resumes and motivation letters in style and content. They also differ in the language that is used. 

These guidebooks aim to provide you with detailed explanations on the information and the structure of these documents. They should help you when applying for internships and employment in English speaking countries. 

Differences in spelling and formatting between the UK and the US have been included for your information. 

This course was started by Professor Jean Paul Bureau in 1997 and has been held in Nîmes under his directorship until 2017. It is designed to provide advanced training in constitutional, haematological, and oncological cytogenetics to medical graduates, pharmacists, pathologists, biologists, health professionals and researchers, with an academic qualification. The students will be trained to identify genetic abnormalities for diagnosis and prognosis, and for fundamental and applied research using both classical and molecular cytogenetic techniques. The course is co- organized by E.C.A. and two French Universities.

It will be held from March 23rd to March 29th, 2026 in Nîmes Medicine faculty.

Compréhension orale vidéo "Structural Engineer vs Architect Design Meeting"

Hello!

Unfortunately, we will not be able to meet again. That was short but a real pleasure to work with you!

You will find in this Moodle a video and an exercise sheet  about  site meetings.

Try to watch it without the subtitles and if it is too difficult you can find the video on the internet (beware of the subtitles anyway, that are sometimes bizarre)

I need it done for 23 March in the evening.

Do not hesitate to contact me by email in case you have a problem: isabelle.mazet@umontpellier.fr

Study of highly and precisely controlled genetic programs that are responsible for animal development, from gametogenesis to adulthood.

Objectives  :                

The aim of this course is to introduce functional genetics and the genetic tools used to understand the principles that control animal development. 

An introduction to Developmental Biology

·       How do cells build a multicellular organism from the same genome ? 

·       What are the genotype/phenotype relationships ?

·       Remember the principles of genetic analysis and model organisms :  the nature of mutations, loss of function and gain of function mutations (definition of a master gene), clonal analysis (of somatic or germ cells)

Study of regulatory elements

·       Establishment of transgenetic lines, enhancer trap lines, reporter genes… using model organisms (Drosophila, C. elegans, mice…)

·       Use of the systems FLP/FRT, CRE-LOX, UAS-GAL4-GAL80, AttpP/B-PhiC31 etc

Positional Information, maternal gene effects and asymmetry

·       Models and mechanisms of positional information (induction, organizers, morphogenesis) 

Establishment of body axes : antero-posterior, dorsal-ventral and proximo-distal/ left-right axes

·       Genetic screens

·       Cellular communication, signaling pathways and gene networks

Invertebrate and vertebrate segmentation :

·       Segmentation genes (gap, « pair rule » and polarity genes)

·       Transcriptional regulation of gene expression during development, regulatory sequences during evolution

Segmental identity and Hox homeotic genes

·       Spatial and temporal regulation of gene expression

·       Epigenetic regulation and 3D architecture of the genome.

·       Evo-Devo concepts

·       Seminars on various topics (sex determination, epigenetic control by polycomb complexes, temporal control of transcription, temporal control of transcription, etc)

L’UE de LCA Niveau 3 en DFASM2 est constituée de 3 ED de LCA intégrés au planning des modules intégrés de chaque semestre. Chaque ED concerne un article d’une discipline du MI dans lequel l’étudiant est inscrit, en cohérence chronologique avec les enseignements.

Elle constitue la suite logique et la mise en application des concepts méthodologiques de biostatistique et d’épidémiologie abordés dans l’UE 5 de Biomédecine quantitative et des UE de LCA Niveau 1 du DFGSM3 et Niveau 2 du DFASM1.

Elle sera suivie :

·         d’un cycle de conférences de LCA dans l’année précédant l’i-ECN

Cet apprentissage progressif a pour but la couverture de l’ensemble des objectifs du CNCI pour l’épreuve de LCA de l’i-ECN.

Cet enseignement a pour objectif de fournir aux étudiants désireux d’approfondir leur bagage scientifique et les bases méthodologiques relatives à la diffusion des connaissances scientifiques.

Compétence : Rédiger un article scientifique au format d’une publication internationale.
