PhD opportunity: REMEDY-HIV: REprogramming Host Membrane Dynamics for Anti-HIV Therapy

The Institute of Pharmacology and Structural Biology (IPBS), part of CNRS and the University of Toulouse, is recruiting a motivated PhD candidate for the BEST Doctoral Programme. Based in Toulouse, France, IPBS is an internationally recognized research institute working across cancer biology, immunology, microbiology, structural biology, and biophysics, with strong expertise in molecular and cellular biology and in vivo approaches.

This PhD project, REMEDY-HIV, focuses on reprogramming host membrane dynamics to identify new strategies for anti-HIV therapy. The work sits at the intersection of membrane organization, HIV infection, macrophage biology, and host-pathogen interactions, with relevance to HIV/Mycobacterium tuberculosis co-infection. The project is co-supervised by Dr Fabrice Dumas at IPBS Toulouse, who specializes in membrane organization and HIV infection, and Dr Luciana Balboa at the University of Buenos Aires / INBIRS, an expert in macrophage biology and HIV/M. tuberculosis co-infection.

The position is part of the BEST Doctoral Programme of the University of Toulouse and is funded through Horizon Europe COFUND. The posting indicates one PhD position available. The expected academic background is a Master degree or equivalent, and candidates must have excellent English language ability and satisfy the programme’s eligibility criteria.

Applicants should consult the full project description and application instructions on the IPBS PhD opportunities page before applying. The application deadline is 23 November 2026 at 10:00 UTC.

Research topics of interest include HIV, membrane dynamics, membrane biology, macrophage function, host-pathogen interactions, and infection biology.
