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

PhD opportunity in Food Digestion and MRI based in Rennes, France , with OPAALE and STLO. The project focuses on investigating the effects of gastric pH on the in vitro gastrointestinal digestion of foods and meals, using innovative MRI approaches to better characterize and understand food transformations during digestion. This is a research-focused doctoral opening for a candidate interested in food science, nutrition, imaging, and digestion physiology. The post highlights interdisciplinary wor...

PhD opportunity at Institut de Biologie Valrose (CNRS), Nice, France This 36-month doctoral position focuses on the links between nutrition, metabolism, and cellular differentiation , using Drosophila spermatogenesis as a model system. The project builds on recent findings from the team showing that circulating citrate can influence male gametogenesis through conversion to acetyl-CoA and N-terminal acetylation , affecting protein stability in a sex-specific manner. The research aims to: (i) clar...

PhD opportunity at INRAE, France in food science , nutrition , biophysics , biochemistry , and process engineering , focused on the influence of gastric pH on in vitro gastrointestinal digestion of foods and meals. The project combines innovative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with digestion models to monitor food transformations during digestion and to better understand the mechanisms affecting nutrient bioavailability . Institution: INRAE Location: France Degree level: PhD, 3 years Start dat...

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 ...

Université de Lorraine is offering an 18-month postdoctoral position within the GlycoMiR project, supported by the B4B (Biomolecules for the Bioeconomy) program. The project brings together researchers from IMoPA (Molecular Engineering and Physiopathology Laboratory), LIBio (Biomolecule Engineering Laboratory) in Vandœuvre-lès-Nancy, and the CRI (Inflammation Research Center) in Paris. The research focuses on valorizing functional biomolecules derived from milk and dairy industry by-products, wi...
