Overview
Our understanding of the causal relationships between genome instability and the development of human diseases relies on our knowledge of the basic mechanisms of DNA and RNA metabolism, from the spatial genome organization to the chromatin landscape up to the regulation of genome expression during development or in response to genotoxic stress.
Objectives
This Genome Instability and Human Disease course at Institut Curie has two objectives:
- Gain knowledge of mechanisms ensuring genome stability, from fundamental molecular pathways (DNA replication, repair, transcription, genome organization) up to large scale approaches (molecular signature using NGS and proteomic).
- Highlight how a research continuum, from basic research to clinical and translational research, provides opportunities to solve human health issues.
Programme Structure
Topics include:
- Basics mechanisms for maintaining genome stability (repair, replication, DNA damage signaling, spatial genome organization)
- Dysfunction of these pathways in human diseases (cancer, aging, immunodeficiency)
- Molecular signature of genome Instability
- The DNA damage response as anti-cancer therapeutic targets and tools for diagnostic/prognostic
