About this position
Inserm and the Université de La Réunion are recruiting for a Junior Professorship Chair (CPJ) in Immunopathology of Infectious Diseases in Tropical Island Environments at INSERM U1187 – PIMIT in Saint-Denis, Réunion (France).
This opportunity is aimed at researchers working on infectious diseases, immunology, microbiology, host-pathogen interactions, innate immunity, arboviral diseases, and zoonoses. The project is embedded in the PIMIT research unit and focuses on emerging and recurrent infectious diseases in tropical island settings, with strong relevance to tropical health, infection persistence, disease severity, and immune evasion.
The post is described as a 4-year full-time position with a tenure-track perspective toward Inserm Research Director. The call mentions an ANR package of €200,000 and a remuneration package of €3,500–€5,000 depending on research experience.

The selected candidate should be able to supervise PhD students and postdoctoral fellows, obtain competitive funding, and contribute to national, European, or international projects. The evaluation also considers originality, international exposure, teaching experience, editorial/reviewing activity, and leadership capacity.
The scientific project will investigate the immunophysiopathology of emerging and recurrent infectious diseases in tropical island environments, especially host-pathogen interactions and the role of innate immunity in pathogenesis, viral persistence, and disease severity. The teaching component is linked to biology and health training, including tropical infectious diseases and zoonoses, virology, microbiology, and cell biology.
Application deadline: 2026-09-02. How to apply: submit online via the Inserm EVA/pro portal, complete the scientific file in English, and contact the host laboratory before applying to build the project with them.
