UMR5095

The Institute of Cellular Biochemistry and Genetics is attached to the Department of Biological and Medical Sciences of the University of Bordeaux and to the National Institute of Biological Sciences (INSB) of the CNRS. The IBGC is composed of 12 teams with a strong identity centered on research in fundamental biology and on particular  topics such as cell division, genome maintenance, chromosome segregation, mitochondria and energy metabolism. The diversity of the model organisms used (the yeasts S. cerevisiae and S. pombe, the fungus P. Anserina, the fly D. melanogaster and the nematode C. elegans as well as rodent (mouse and rat) and human models) and the complementarity of the know-how in cell biology, genetics and biochemistry are its strengths.
