By CEA
The researchers at the CEA have developed a high degree of technological expertise and have access to imaging and high-speed screening facilities, to the instruments and equipment required for structural biology and large-scale biology, and to preclinical study platforms. They can therefore cover the analysis of living organisms on several scales (from molecule, cell and organ level through to the whole organism) and can study both normal and pathological biological phenomena. For example, integrated structural biology studies the architecture and dynamics of macromolecules, cells and organs. In addition, the “omics” (genomics, transcriptomics, metabolomics, etc.) provide information on the quantitative and qualitative variations in cell components during a normal or pathological event.
