To introduce the latest developments in cytometry (flow and imaging) applied to the field of “drug discovery”, the prediction of toxicity or antibiotics.
New generation of analysis software in cytometry (interactive comparison of different cell populations from different organs)
Course outline
Theoretical basis of high-speed cellular analysis: measurements based on fluorescence, size and granularity.
Applications to the discovery of new molecules during cell challenge (inflammation, apoptosis, UV irradiation)
Practical work
Practical work will take place at the eBioCyt platform “Bio-pharmacological and pharmacokinetic tests in cytomic” at the Faculty of Pharmacy. It is related to FACS (Fluorescence Activated Cell Sorting).
Acquired skills
Technologies in cytometry (integrated responses to different cell populations of an organ or organism).
“ex vivo” Technologies on models of human cells to avoid animal models often too distant from the human response.
