About this position

PhD opportunity in France at INRAE – UMR STLO (Science et Technologie du Lait et de l’Œuf) in Rennes.

This 36-month doctoral project focuses on gastric pH, in vitro gastrointestinal digestion, and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) applied to foods and meals. The research aims to understand how pH influences digestion, food breakdown, and nutrient release, while developing semi-dynamic in vitro digestion models and monitoring structural changes in real time.

The project sits at the interface of food science, nutrition, biophysics, and food engineering. It is especially relevant for candidates interested in digestion mechanisms, food structure, nutrient bioaccessibility, and advanced imaging methods.

Candidate profile: Master’s degree in food science, nutrition, biochemistry, process engineering, biophysics, or a related field; strong interest in digestion, imaging, and experimental research; analytical skills and autonomy.

Location: Rennes, France.

Programme: PhD, 36 months.

How to apply: Use the INRAE vacancy link and follow the instructions on the official job page. Review the project description carefully before submitting your application.
