Molecular & Cellular Biotherapies
Molecular & Cellular Biotherapies (MCB)
The track on Biotherapies and Advanced Therapy Medicinal Products (ATMPs) offers an exciting opportunity to dive deep into some of the most revolutionary fields in modern medicine. The program is designed to provide students with a comprehensive knowledge of the rapidly evolving areas of cell- and gene-based therapies, tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. Through a blend of lectures, hands-on laboratory work, and case studies, the program is structured to address key aspects of biotherapy development, including molecular and cellular/stem cell biology, immunology, and bioengineering techniques, providing participants with a solid grasp of the science behind advanced therapies.
Additionally, the program explores the regulatory frameworks and the clinical applications essential for the development and safe administration of these innovative therapies, preparing them for research and career opportunities in academia as well as in biopharmaceutical and biotechnology firms, specialized in these fast-growing therapies.
The MCB track thus serves as a comprehensive pathway into the expanding fields of cell and gene therapy, biopharmaceuticals, and regenerative medicine positioning students at the forefront of groundbreaking therapeutic innovations.
Semester 3
Mandatory courses
3 ECTS to be picked among
One course of 3 ECTS in another Master (subject to Master chairs’ authorizations)
Semester 4
Mandatory courses
NB. No schedule or syllabus will be provided before the kick-off meeting. You must know that it is a full-time program though.
As far as the non mandatory courses are concerned, the students’ choices will have to be discussed with the track chairs and will be finalized during the interdisciplinary week, taking the student’s personal background and interests into consideration. It will then be validated in a co-signed contract of study.
The courses students will eventually attend will also depend on actual availability: some courses might not open because of an insufficient number of attendees, while others may have a limited capacity and not be able to offer a seat to all.
As indicated, a course may be offered to BME Paris students outside the track which supports it. In such cases, priority will be given to students enrolled in the supporting track.
Students enrolled in other Arts et Métiers, Université Paris Cité or Université PSL programs may also attend a BME Paris course, provided that:
- their respective program chairs support their application
- the course is not already full
- the relevant BME Paris chairs accept their applications which must include a CV and a motivation letter
