Université de Bretagne Occidentale

Research at UBO is organized in four research axes: Sea, Social sciences and Humanities, Digital Sciences and Mathematics, Health and agro-material. UBO is also involved on the international level, such as European collaborations. It has been involved in more than 17 H2020 projects over the last 5 years. It is part of the European University SEA-EU. UBO is finally working closely together with the non-academic sector, NGO’s, large companies and local authorities.

Dedicated technical facilities allow researchers to conduct top-level projects in various domains:

• Materials characterization (scanning and transmission electron microscopes, atomic force microscope, confocal microscope, diffraction ray spectrometer, fluorescence and bioluminescence microscopes)
• Performance engineering (network analyzers, dynamic mechanical thermal analysis and rheology)
• Chemistry (nuclear magnetic resonance)
• Biotechnology services (tissue culture, protein chemistry, and computational analysis of biological data)
• Genomic facility (high-throughput DNA and RNA sequencing, microarray analysis (Affymetrix) protein analysis, multiple flow cytometry instruments, bioinformatics)
• Animal resources
• High performance computing and body imaging (positron emission tomography)
• Oceanographic spectrometry and data computing for marine science
