International Master of Science in Biomedicine (IMBM) or Master in Molecular and Computational Biomedicine (MMCB)?
IMBM: A joint international programme offered by three universities (University of Luxembourg, University of Strasbourg, and University of Mainz), with students studying across different campuses over four semesters.
MMCB: A two-year, campus-based programme at the University of Luxembourg, with a balanced integration of experimental and computational biomedicine.
IMBM: Provides a multidisciplinary education with specialised focus areas, including cardiovascular and metabolic diseases, neuroscience, and immunology, along with research training in experimental and computational biology.
MMCB: Focuses on a broad understanding of biomedicine, combining experimental and computational techniques throughout the program.
IMBM: Each semester has a unique focus:
- Semester 1: “Omics” at the University of Luxembourg.
- Semester 2: “Cellular and Integrated Pharmacology and Vascular and Metabolic Diseases” at the University of Strasbourg.
- Semester 3: “Neurodegenerative and Immunological Pathologies” at the University of Mainz.
- Semester 4: Research internship in national or international public or private laboratories.
MMCB: Divided into four semesters, with the first two focused on coursework (lectures, experimental labs, and computational labs), and the final two months dedicated to individual research projects.
IMBM: A cross-border programme, with students rotating through three different universities, gaining exposure to diverse scientific perspectives and networking opportunities.
MMCB: Entirely based at the University of Luxembourg, offering a more localized, campus-based experience.
IMBM: Provides specialised tracks with a stronger focus on specific biomedical disciplines such as cardiovascular diseases, neurodegenerative diseases, and immunology
MMCB: Offers a more balanced approach, with equal emphasis on both experimental and computational biomedicine.
IMBM: Provides a research internship during the last semester, allowing students to work in both public and private laboratories, offering practical experience in various biomedical fields.
MMCB: Focuses on individual research projects during the final semester.
