Many Pasteur laboratories are integrating physical approaches in their studies ranging from structural biology, via cell biology, to infection, neurobiology  and development.

• Multiscale self-organization is studied at the level of protein machineries in bacteria,  cytoskeleton during the migration of eucaryotic cells and organizaton of tissues during development.

• Cellular and tissue mechanics are explored during bacterial aggregation,  grastrulation and heart development as well as during amoebae movement.

• Information processing and signaling are studied in the context of neurobiology, 3D genome architecture, transciption and cell decision making.

The Quantitative Biology program aims to encourage these developments on campus. The major purpose of this program is:

• To foster interactions between scientists involved in Quantitative Biology at Institut Pasteur through seminars and mini-symposiums.

• To bring quantitatively trained scientists into biology

• To encourage biologists to integrate quantitative models into their research

The Qbio programm organise monthly progress reports where early career scientists (PhD, postdoc) present ongoing projects at the interface between biology, physics and/or mathematics in an informal setting.  The primary aim is to foster interactions on the campus. The meetings currently take place online and on site on Thursdays at 2pm every month. Contact the organisers if you would like to join.
