Postdoc Opportunities in Neuroscience in France

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 project at CNRS in Dijon focuses on the synthesis of DNA and RNA ligands designed for cancer-related applications. The researcher will work on the preparation and characterization of complex chemical molecules, study ligand/target interactions, investigate photophysical properties, and carry out preliminary biological evaluation. The position is embedded in a funded ANR project linking laboratories in Dijon, Toulouse, and Paris, offering a collaborative interdisciplinary enviro...

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...

This postdoctoral position at CNRS is embedded in the PEPR Origins and the Biosystèmes Synthétiques team at the Laboratoire de Biologie Structurale de la Cellule (BIOC, UMR 7654) , CNRS – École polytechnique. The project focuses on experimental RNA reaction networks that can exhibit the core features of Darwinian evolution: reproduction, variation, and selection. The successful candidate will work on building and characterising self-replicating, autocatalytic RNA systems and on understanding how...

This postdoctoral position is based in the Microscopies avancées et physiologie des tissus group at the Laboratoire d'Optique et de Biosciences (LOB) , École Polytechnique, in Palaiseau, France, within a broader CNRS-linked research environment focused on advanced optical imaging and developmental neurobiology. The project is centered on large-scale bioimage analysis for 3D multichannel, multicolour mouse brain data exceeding terabyte scale. The successful candidate will work from an existing op...

This postdoctoral project at CNRS investigates the role of cerebello-thalamic pathways in Parkinson's disease. The research focuses on the anatomy and function of these pathways and aims to better understand how they contribute to the disease. The successful researcher will carry out experimental work involving chronic implantations of electrodes, optical fibers, and inertial measurement units (IMU), alongside surgery and behavioral studies. The role also includes designing, running, and followi...

This postdoctoral project is hosted by the Nanobio team at ISMO , within a joint CNRS / Université Paris-Saclay unit, and is part of the European ERC TimeNanoLive project. The work focuses on pushing the limits of fluorescence lifetime microscopy and single-molecule localization microscopy to observe living biological systems and nanostructures dynamically. The recruited researcher will help develop a new time-resolved fluorescence lifetime measurement approach that is closely connected to singl...

This postdoctoral position is based at the Centre Microélectronique de Provence within the Department of Bioelectronics at the Ecole nationale supérieure des mines de Saint-Etienne. The project sits at the interface of electronics, materials science, and the life sciences, in a research environment described as international, interdisciplinary, and supported by a fully equipped cleanroom in Gardanne, near Aix-Marseille. The research aims to develop a new generation of flexible organic optical se...
