Postdoc Opportunities in Cell Biology in France

This postdoctoral project is based in the G2L team within the PGNM laboratory at Inserm and contributes to an ANR-funded research programme under the PEPR Med-OoC call. The project focuses on building standardized human neuromuscular models derived from hPSC and integrated with microfluidic chips. The aim is to improve diagnostic precision while reducing reliance on animal models. The appointed researcher will work on CRISPR/Cas9 engineering of reporter hPSC lines specific to neuronal and muscle...

Postdoctoral position at Nantes Université, France in microbiology, cell biology, host-bacterial interactions, and molecular biology. The recruited researcher will study how Vibrio cholerae interacts with different hosts, including intestinal cell lines, macrophages, heterotrophic protists, and Galleria mellonella waxworms, with a particular focus on the bacterium’s membrane remodeling ability and its role in pathogenicity and transfer through the food chain. The project involves host-bacteria e...

INEM - Institut Necker Enfants Malades is advertising a postdoctoral researcher position in the Genome Plasticity and Infections Lab led by Laurence Arbibe in central Paris, France. The project focuses on circRNAs and other non-canonical RNA species such as dsRNAs , with the goal of understanding how they contribute to intestinal inflammation and epithelial repair in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) . This is a strong fit for candidates with interests in RNA biology , molecular biology , cell bi...

The Nicol & Fassier lab at the Vision Institute in Paris, France, is offering a postdoctoral position in developmental neuroscience and cell biology within the Mechanisms of sensory map development team. The project is part of the ANR-funded MASTERCIL programme and is led by Melody Atkins . It focuses on the cellular and molecular mechanisms that guide accurate neuronal wiring, with a particular emphasis on the role of the primary cilium in neuronal migration. The team’s recent work suggests tha...
