Contexte de travail

The Institut de Biosciences et Biotechnologies Aix Marseille (BIAM) is a Joint Research Unit (UMR) with around 100 permanent employees and 50 non-permanent staff (fixed-term contracts, PhD and post-doctoral students, trainees). The UMR is located on the CEA Cadarache site and on the campus of the Faculté des Sciences de Luminy. BIAM's fundamental research projects aim to understand the mechanisms involved in the response and adaptation of living organisms to environmental constraints, and to develop technologies dedicated to preserving the quality of our environment. They are conducted using a number of multidisciplinary approaches on model organisms (algae, plants, bacteria) or on the most suitable organisms based on biodiversity studies. The position is based in the Plant Genetics and Biophysics team at the Faculté des Sciences de Luminy, working in close collaboration with the Ingéniérie applied to microbiology team at the Laboratoire de Chimie Bactérienne of the CNRS (Campus Joseph Aiguier). Both groups are part of Aix Marseille University's Institute of Microbiology, Biotechnology and Bioenergies.
