About this position

Postdoctoral position in Virology and Innate Immunity at IRSET-Inserm U1085 in Rennes, France.

The project, led by Dr. Nathalie Dejucq-Rainsford and her UrGenT team, focuses on understanding the mechanisms behind Zika virus (ZIKV) persistence in male germ cell reservoirs.

Required background includes a PhD in Virology or Innate Immunity, a strong publication record in these areas, and practical expertise in cell culture (including primary cells), molecular virology, flow cytometry, immunofluorescence, RT-qPCR, and Western blot. Fluent English is required.

To apply, send a CV, cover letter, and the contact details of two references to Dr. Nathalie Dejucq-Rainsford by email. Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis.
