At Institut Curie Research Center, researchers and medics joining from all the world share the same motto: Working with Curie’osity’ for discovery beyond all borders, disciplines and scales to dive into the secrets of science and medicine.

You will be able to navigate through the four major domains of research. First, the biology of radiations, cell signaling and Cancer, second Development biology, Cancer, Genetics and Epigenetics, third integrative tumor biology, immunology and environment, and fourth multiscale Physics-Biology-Chemistry and Cancer. These domains are highly interconnected via transversal activities involving our advanced training unit, and our technological platforms that constantly evolve to match new challenges.

Seminar Survival of the fittest: a Drosophila model of epithelial stem cell niche competition

The follicular epithelium in the Drosophila ovary is an ideal model for the study of epithelial biology. It possesses many classical epithelial features, such as a columnar cell shape, apical/basal po ... Read more

Institutional seminar "Marie Curie Seminar" Stem cell-grown organoids as models for human disease

The intestinal epithelium is the most rapidly self-renewing tissue in adult mammals. We originally defined Lgr5 as a Wnt target gene, transcribed in colon cancer cells. Two knock-in alleles revealed e ... Read more

Vincent Favaudon, radiobiologiste, chercheur à l'Institut Curie (U612 INSERM) et directeur de recherche émérite INSERM. Les recherches de Vincent Favaudon et de son équipe sont consacrées aux bases de la radiothérapie et de la chimiothérapie antitumorale. Elles comprennent l'étude du mode d'action des drogues antitumorales, des effets de ces drogues en association avec les radiations ionisantes, et de la dynamique de la réponse cellulaire (signalisation, réparation) aux radiations. Méthodologies expérimentales : Biologie des radiations, Radiobiologie, Pharmacologie moléculaire, Biologie cellulaire, Biologie moléculaire, Radiations ionisantes. Ici : Accélérateur linéaire d'électrons de 4.5 MeV (CGR-MeV), pour des expériences de radiolyse pulsée à très haut débit de dose.
