Présentation
Objectives

With the advent of high-speed data processing technology (genome sequencing, RNA and protein expression, metabolomics), different fields in life sciences (pharmaceutical industry, hospitals, biotechnologies, agro-industry, environment and fundamental research) need researchers and engineers with sound knowledge in biology and the ability to treat and analyse large quantities of heterogeneous data. This master's program, with a Biocomputing specialization, is a multidisciplinary program that satisfies this demand by enabling students to:
understand biology's complex and diverse issues in order to respond to current needs in research and innovation in academic research, the biotechnology industry, pharma and health;
deal with new challenges brought about by the evolution and rapid development of high-speed data production technologies;
master techniques associated with the analysis and modelling of biomedical data;
be autonomous when managing application development projects in a variety of programming languages, to propose innovative IT solutions and to carry out the analyses and necessary developments to test new methods and hypotheses for the living.
