Missions

As part of this project aimed at demonstrating the potential of polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) for applications in innovative medical devices, the candidate will be tasked with: Synthesising PHA-based functional copolymers, implementing post-polymerisation functionalisation strategies in order to modulate and optimise their physico-chemical and biological properties. To fully characterise the copolymers obtained. Assessing the in vitro degradation kinetics of the copolymers, in order to anticipate their behaviour in a biological environment. Carry out preliminary in vitro biological tests to examine cytocompatibility.

Activités

The aim of the project is to demonstrate the high potential of polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) for the development of innovative medical devices. It aims to design new PHA structures with adjustable properties, to functionalise the polyesters obtained by post-polymerisation modification in order to optimise their characteristics, and to develop medical devices based on these functionalized PHAs.caractéristiques, et à développer des dispositifs médicaux basés sur ces PHA fonctionnalisés.

Compétences

The candidate should have solid skills in polymer synthesis and characterisation. Experience in organic chemistry and polymer chemistry, particularly in the field of post-polymerisation modification, would be particularly welcome. The profile sought is that of an autonomous, rigorous researcher with a passion for experimental science. Good writing skills in French and English, good interpersonal skills and the ability to work in a multidisciplinary team are also expected.

Contexte de travail

The postdoctoral placement will take place in the Polymers for Health and Biomaterials (PHBM) department of the Max Mousseron Institute of Biomolecules (IBMM) in Montpellier. This postdoctoral project is part of an ANR project (PHAMOUS). The project is being carried out in collaboration with two partners: IRDL (Institut de Recherche Dupuy de Lôme, Lorient), which is responsible for PHA biosynthesis, and CEA (Grenoble), which is responsible for polymer formulation and processing.

Le poste se situe dans un secteur relevant de la protection du potentiel scientifique et technique (PPST), et nécessite donc, conformément à la réglementation, que votre arrivée soit autorisée par l'autorité compétente du MESR.
