Skills/Qualifications

Your skills:
• Strong experience in molecular biology (RNA, qPCR, FACS…)
• Interest in single-cell and spatial transcriptomic technologies
• Hands-on experience in cell culture and a collaborative mindset
• Rigor, organization, and strong motivation for patient-oriented research

Specific Requirements

• Educational Background
  • Master 2 degree or equivalent engineering degree in biology, biotechnology, or closely related fields.
• Technical Skills
  • Proven expertise in molecular biology techniques: RNA extraction, RT-qPCR, FACS, cell culture.

  • Previous use of viral transduction methods for clonal tracing (e.g., barcoding) is appreciated.
• Project Involvement
  • Ability to follow and implement experimental chemotherapy treatments on in vitro models.
  • Participation in the coordination of biological samples with technical platforms (ICEP, DISC at CRCM).
  • Capacity to closely collaborate with bioinformatics teams for data analysis and experimental planning.
• Soft Skills
  • Strong organizational skills and experimental rigor.
  • Team-oriented mindset and ability to communicate across disciplines.
  • Strong motivation for translational research and interest in clinical applications.
• Additional Assets
  • Previous experience in translational cancer research projects.
  • Comfort working in a multidisciplinary environment at the interface of biology, technology, and clinical research.
  • Proficiency in French or English (minimum working knowledge of both is recommended).
