About this position

PhD thesis in cellular neurobiology (M/F) at the Centre de Recherche en Biologie cellulaire de Montpellier (CRBM), CNRS, France.

This PhD project is based in the Signalling and Cytoskeleton Dynamics research team and focuses on cellular neurobiology, axon growth, axon guidance, cytoskeletal dynamics, and adhesion dynamics. The project investigates how the microtubule-associated protein NAV1 regulates neuronal development and how disease-associated mutations may contribute to neurodevelopmental disorders such as autism spectrum disorders and intellectual disability.

The work will use primary mouse neuron cultures, cell lines, molecular biochemistry, developmental biology, and high-resolution live-cell imaging. The student will join a collaborative research environment with French and international laboratories, attend regular team meetings, and receive technical training.

Eligibility: Master degree or equivalent in biological sciences. Basic French is required. No prior research experience is required.

Funding: Full-time temporary PhD position; no stipend amount is stated. The post notes that it is not funded through an EU Research Framework Programme.

Location: Montpellier, France.

Deadline: 18 September 2026, 23:59 UTC.
