Explore a class of media additive leading to a media formulation specialised for enhanced cell growth and tissue formation
This internship aims to identify candidates within this broader category that can be used to regulate cell migration. A key goal is to determine the cellular conditions required for their activity and assess their potential integration into cell-culture media.
The study of these effects hinges on characterizing the dose dependent effect of these molecules. This requires the design and implementation of screening methods for different candidates.
Selected bioactive molecules are known to influence wound-healing–related processes by altering cell behavior. They have been associated with enhanced extracellular matrix (ECM) production as well as modulation of cell motility.
These molecules can regulate cell migration depending on their structure, dose, and the cellular environment. In many cases, they display a complex response in which some concentrations stimulate cell migration while others become inhibitory.
Missions :
Design and implement experimental plans to screen the effects of candidate molecules, using cell culture and imaging techniques.
