Missions

Take charge of an experimental research project in cell biology, physical interface. Participate in the design of the research project, conduct a research project: carry out experiments, analyze and communicate results, discuss and present results, write articles.

Activités

Participate in project design, - use and develop new methodologies, - carry out experiments, - analyze and communicate results, - write research reports and articles. The candidate will use a wide range of approaches at the interface between cell biology and mechanics, including advanced microscopy on living cells, cell biology (mammalian cell culture, transfection, molecular biology...) and micromanipulation and microfabrication to control and measure the dynamic properties of cancer cells.

Compétences

The candidate must hold a PhD in cell or developmental biology, with possible previous experience in microscopy and quantitative imaging. The successful candidate will be expected to work in an interdisciplinary and international environment.

Contexte de travail

The Ladoux-Mege team is composed of scientists with various expertise that cover a large range of disciplines including cell biology, surface chemistry and biophysics. Integrating mechanics, engineering and cell signaling approaches across scales, the team aim at understanding the physical principles and molecular mechanisms that control collective cell behaviors.
Institut Jacques Monod with its a multidisciplinary environment is one of the main centers of basic research in biology in France. The Institut Jacques Monod offer state-of-the art instrumentation and expertise in the fields of flow cytometry, electron and photonic microscopy, proteomics.
