About this position

Postdoctoral position (24 months) at the French National Institute for Health Research (INSERM) in Lyons (Arrondissement), Rhône, France.

The project focuses on paediatric leukaemias, the bone marrow microenvironment, and the developmental origins of childhood leukaemias. The successful candidate will join a dynamic team working in fundamental and translational research in paediatric haematology, with collaboration across the South Rock research consortium of excellence.

Research themes include: (1) cellular and molecular mechanisms of leukaemogenesis in children; (2) the role of the bone marrow microenvironment in initiation, progression, and treatment response; and (3) foetal and developmental origins of certain childhood leukaemias. Methods may include patient samples, advanced cellular models, multiparametric cytometry, transcriptomics (single-cell and ATAC-seq), genome editing, and bioinformatic analyses, depending on the candidate’s profile.

Eligibility highlights: a PhD in biology, haematology, oncology, immunology, or a related discipline; solid experience in cellular and molecular biology; a strong publication record; and good scientific English. Experience in stem cell biology, haematology, genomics, transcriptomics, bioinformatics, or imaging is advantageous. The role also values independence, rigour, curiosity, and collaborative working.

Salary is depending on experience. The post is advertised as a postdoctoral opening rather than a scholarship. Apply via the Nature Careers portal using the online application form.
