Information access and retrieval

This course addresses advanced aspects of information access and retrieval, focusing on several points: models (probabilistic, vector-space and logical), multimedia indexing, web information retrieval, and their links with machine learning. These last parts provide opportunities to present the processing of large amount of partially structured data. Each part is illustrated on examples associated with different applications.

Grenoble Alpes Grenoble – Domaine universitaire – Saint-Martin-d’Hères The domain of information access encompasses several applications pertaining to categorization, clustering or information retrieval. The goal of this module is to present models and algorithms used in these frameworks, and is intended to students willing to use or develop tools for data mining, machine learning and information retrieval. This course requires knowledge of probability and integration theory. Some previous knowledge of Stochastic processes is welcomed. No previous knowledge of Brownian motion or Stochastic Calculus is required. Georges Quenot 3 2nd year of master Lecture Course content can evolve at any time before the start of the course.

Epigenetics and cell differentiation

Course outline Today, the term “epigenetics” is used to describe the study of heritable changes in genome function that occur without a change in DNA sequence. This includes the way gene expression is passed from one cell to its progeny, how gene expression changes during the differentiation of one cell type into another, and how environmental factors can change the way genes are expressed. Epigenetic regulation involves changes of chromatin structure. Interestingly, the mechanisms involved in epigenetic regulation, such as histone modifications, also participate in the transient changes of gene expression. This course is therefore opened to all students with an interest in the control of gene expression. There are far-reaching implications of epigenetic research for plant and human biology and disease. The different mechanisms involved in epigenetic regulation, and the different contexts involving epigenetic regulation will be presented: – actors involved in epigenetic regulation (role of histone modification, chromatin remodeling complex, histone variants, DNA methylation, small and long noncoding RNA), – contexts involving an epigenetic regulation (response to cell environment, cell differentiation, development) – implication in diseases.

Immunity against cancers and infectious diseases

Immune responses against cancers occur and erase most of the developing tumors. Unfortunately, some cancers escape the spontaneous immune responses we are mounting to become a clinical challenge. Lectures will be devoted to detail what is currently tested in tumor immunotherapy to control or cure developing tumors. A parallel with immunological responses against infectious agents will be made. Conferences will be given by researchers originating from Grenoble but also outside (Paris, Marseille, Lyon, and Dijon) to expose enrolled students to Immunology researches performed nationwide. All these researchers are susceptible to host Master 2 students during their internship. The particularity of this UE resides in the fact that some lectures are mutualized via videoconferences with the Master of Immunology from Paris V, VI, and VII. The mid-term evaluation will consist in the presentation of a selected conference by an individual student.

Molecular genetics and epigenetics

This course concerns all the students interested in gene expression across the tree of life: bacteria, lower (yeast, protozoans) and higher eukaryotes (plants, mammalian). It is complementary to the M1 course “Cell Compartmentalization and Implications in Pathology”. You will gain further knowledge on the mechanisms involved in the control of gene expression in the general context of gene regulation. The course will present the new developments for the analysis and control of gene expression. This will include in vitro and in vivo approaches that can be usedin cells and living organisms. A specific emphasis will be given to new aspects of gene regulation at a transcriptional and post-transcriptional level (RNA maturation and transport). The role of epigenetic regulation involving DNA methylation, post-translational histone modification, long and short non-coding RNA and histone variants in the control of gene expression will also be addressed. The broad range of model organisms (human, mouse, plants, yeast, bacteria…) and questions addressed in this course makes it a “must take” for those interested in evolution, development, cell differentiation, senescence, infectious diseases and pathologies such as cancer. Therefore, this course is strongly recommended as a preparation to the PHED and NN Master 2 programs.
