Postdoc Opportunities in Biology in France

This postdoctoral position is hosted at the PMMH, the Laboratory of Physics and Mechanics of Heterogeneous Media (UMR 7636 CNRS–ESPCI–PSL–Sorbonne Université–Université Paris Cité), in Paris. The project sits at the interface of fluid mechanics, soft matter physics and environmental microbiology, and focuses on how microplastics interact with microorganisms in flowing environments. The postdoctoral researcher will study the hetero-aggregation of microplastics with microorganisms , quantifying ho...

This post-doctoral position is part of the LESS malnutrition GHIGS project at the Université de Bordeaux and focuses on the scientific and operational coordination of a clinical trial in northern Nigeria (Yobe State) within the ALIMA humanitarian mission. The post-doctoral researcher will contribute to the preparation and implementation of a randomized three-arm clinical trial involving 1,008 children aged 6 to 59 months. The project includes protocol development in line with SPIRIT guidelines a...

This postdoctoral position in the StratifyAging project at Université de Bordeaux focuses on modelling clinical phenotypes of brain diseases from large-scale neuroimaging data. The recruited researcher will work on predictive approaches across several cohorts, including Trois-Cités , Memento and UK Biobank , and will also contribute to meta-analyses involving additional international cohorts. The project combines methodological development with applied biomedical analysis. A key part of the role...

This postdoctoral position is based at ESPCI Paris – PSL within the Laboratoire Gulliver (UMR 7083) . The project focuses on exploring biochemical reaction networks that can process information, with an emphasis on carrying out distributed algorithms related to graph theory . The successful candidate will join a research environment that combines experimental biology with broader questions in information processing through molecular systems. The work described in the advert is hands-on and resea...

This postdoctoral position at Université Côte d'Azur is part of a project on how microbial ecosystems can alter rocks under conditions reminiscent of the early Earth. The work is centered on geomicrobiology, with a strong interface between microbial ecology, geochemistry, and astrobiology. The project builds on an existing experimental platform developed at the CEREEP ECOTRON Île-de-France , where rock-weathering reactors reproduce Archean-like conditions. These experiments compare sterile react...

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 post-doctoral project at INRAE Centre Clermont - Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes focuses on nutrition-based strategies to restore the anabolic response of muscle to a meal. The work is centered on whether fermented foods developed in the DOMINO project can improve muscle recovery after immobilization in an aged rodent model. The successful candidate will coordinate and monitor an animal experiment using aged rats immobilized with casts, then assess whole-body and tissue-level metabolic responses. Thes...

This postdoctoral project sits at the interface of organic synthesis and chemical biology, with a clear biomedical orientation toward anticancer research. The recruited researcher will help develop polyazamacrocyclic compounds as ligands for non-canonical nucleic acid structures , especially DNA three-way junctions , and then functionalize these molecules for chemical-biology applications. The position involves hands-on organic synthesis and molecular characterization , together with participati...
