The Research Internship in the first year, coupled to the master test in the second, forms a pathway in the training which can evolve - for masters wishing to make a Ph.D. - without interruption in productive doctoral research activity without much additional training. This line offers the opportunity to reach extended practical experimental skills, a profound scientific level and critical attitude and to become familiar with specific biomedical techniques and scientific research in a team.

The Research Internship consists of a critical study of literature on the subject chosen for the master test, the formulation of a research protocol, a public oral presentation and defense of this protocol, as well as an apprenticeship in one or several laboratories enabling the student to acquire experience with specific basic experimental skills and acting in a team.
