PhD, Master’s & Postdoc Opportunities in Agriculture in France

This doctoral project is hosted at the Institute of Integrative Biology of the Cell (I2BC) on the CNRS campus at Gif-sur-Yvette, within a collaborative research network involving IJPB-INRAE (Versailles) and IGEPP-INRAE (Rennes) . The thesis focuses on how modifying vacuolar nitrate storage can alter nitrogen use efficiency , water use efficiency , and tolerance to water stress in Arabidopsis thaliana . The work centers on the nitrate transporter CLCa and asks how changing nitrate storage in diff...

This position is based at ENVT and is attached to the PRISM-E2 project within UMR 1225 , working in connection with the scientific staff of the VIRAL team. The recruited researcher will contribute to the development of early warning approaches for pathogen detection in fish farming, with a strong focus on viruses and metagenomic high-throughput detection . The work includes designing and optimizing sampling strategies, including environmental sampling, to improve early detection in aquaculture s...

This post-doctoral research position at the École nationale vétérinaire de Toulouse (ENVT) is part of the PEPR “Elevages durables” project and focuses on preventive approaches in livestock farming, especially vaccination and biosafety . The recruited researcher will work at the interface of epidemiology and social sciences to design and implement interdisciplinary studies in two livestock sectors: poultry and ruminants . The work includes building study protocols, conducting questionnaire-based ...

This postdoctoral project focuses on the structural biology of amyloid aggregates and the molecular basis of tauopathies. The work is centered on tau, an intrinsically disordered protein implicated in neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease, where it forms amyloid assemblies with distinct pathological conformations. The project aims to characterize tau aggregation pathways that lead to amyloid states reproducing biological strain-like properties, including structure and seeding be...

Institute and research environment. This postdoctoral position is based at the Institute for Research on Education (IREDU), within the INSPE of the University of Burgundy Europe in Dijon. IREDU works on effectiveness and equity in education, from secondary to higher education, and is also a regional associated center of Céreq, with research linked to graduate employability and education-to-employment transitions. Project focus. The researcher will join a 36-month project on Education for Sustain...

The FIPDes Consortium offers a fully funded master’s programme in Food Innovation and Product Design , with a thesis pathway focused on sustainable food systems, food product development, food technology and innovation. The programme brings together an international academic network comprising AgroParisTech , the University of Naples Federico II , Lund University and TU Dublin . Students will engage with interdisciplinary approaches to the development of innovative food products and technologies...

This postdoctoral position is based in the Santé et Agroécologie du Vignoble unit (SAVE) at the INRAE research centre in Villenave d’Ornon, near Bordeaux, within the Institut des Sciences de la Vigne et du Vin (ISVV) . The role sits in a research environment focused on agroecological transition in viticulture and on close collaboration with professionals in the wine and biocontrol sectors. The successful candidate will contribute to Parsada GetUp (2025–30) , a project developing operational solu...

This postdoctoral position is part of the ERC Synergy project 3Stops2go , a collaborative effort bringing together four teams working on alternative decoding for therapeutic purposes. At the I2BC, the project focuses on two complementary research directions. First, the postdoctoral researcher will help design, implement, and analyse a large-scale screen in human cells to identify new suppressor tRNAs able to read premature termination codons efficiently while maintaining strong selectivity again...

This postdoctoral position at CNRS is part of the ECO-EVO BIODIV project, which develops an integrative eco-evolutionary approach to understanding biodiversity and its dynamics. The project brings together concepts and methods spanning biodiversity levels, biological groups, intra- and interspecific variation, and the spatial and temporal processes that shape them. The advertised research focuses on building and analysing theoretical models of simple trophic modules, such as a predator, two prey...
