Company Description
The focus of the laboratory's research is the analysis of structural variations in cancer genomes by computational genomics, including bioinformatics and systems biology methods. Their work centers around our collection of genomic tumor data, assembled from copy number screening experiments in cancer. Specific projects deal with the development of computational methods for cancer genome data analysis, genomic aberration analysis in specific tumor entities as well as large scale exploration of imbalance patterns in malignancies.

Company Description
At the heart of Paris, the Developmental Biology Laboratory (LBD) contains numerous research teams all studying animal embryology. Among them, Mr.Vincent Galy's lab is recently interested in the degradation of paternal organites by allogaphy, a phenomenon occurring during the first minutes of Caenorhabditis elegans' embryonic life.
