About this position

Institut Curie in Paris, France is advertising a Junior Group Leader position in Cell Biology with a strong cancer biology and quantitative research angle. The call highlights research areas including cell biology, cell signaling, image analysis, development of tools for cell biology, cancer biology, and quantitative approaches.

The successful candidate will join the Cell Biology and Cancer Department and will have access to outstanding infrastructure: advanced imaging platforms, single-cell technologies, CRISPR screening, proteomics and mass spectrometry, bioinformatics and high-throughput sequencing, and cryo-electron microscopy. The post is embedded in a highly collaborative, interdisciplinary environment with links to Institut Curie, PSL, and other research partners in Paris.

Eligibility highlights include a PhD, postdoctoral research experience, a strong publication/track record, and the ability to build an independent research program. The department is looking for candidates who can work across cell biology topics such as intracellular trafficking, cell signaling, molecular motors, cytoskeleton organization, cell migration, cell division, polarity, cell and tissue mechanics, morphogenesis, cell metabolism, cell size control, nuclear organization, aging, and cancer.

Funding/support includes laboratory space for a team of 6 people, a start-up package, and salary support. No tuition or scholarship funding is mentioned because this is a faculty-style research leadership opening rather than a student scholarship.

Deadline: 2026-09-15.

How to apply: Send a motivation letter, CV, publication list, a brief description of past achievements and future research plan (maximum 3 pages), plus the names and addresses of three referees to the contact email provided.

Funding details
