Un laboratoire de recherche en imagerie médicale à Paris propose une thèse en imagerie cardiovasculaire et pharmacologie. Le candidat participera à des recherches sur le syndrome de Takotsubo, en identifiant des cibles thérapeutiques grâce à des techniques d'imagerie avancées. Une forte motivation pour la recherche et des compétences organisationnelles sont essentielles.
We are looking for a candidate for a science thesis in Cardiovascular Imaging and Pharmacology. Our laboratory is interested in the non‑destructive imaging analysis of energy metabolism and vascularization. We have recently introduced a new non‑invasive imaging technique to simultaneously study these two phenomena and their interactions with PETRUS, which, when applied to the exploration of cardiac pathologies, provides in‑depth information on mechanisms and pharmacological targets for treatment.
Takotsubo syndrome is a stress‑induced cardiomyopathy affecting mostly women. The clinical picture resembles an infarction without coronary artery obstruction; its prevalence is increasing and it exposes patients to fatal recurrences. There is no treatment. We have identified the metabolic pathways involved, making them potential therapeutic targets.
The main axes of this research topic are: (1) to identify and/or confirm therapeutic targets by PETRUS imaging and molecular analysis, notably by Nanostring and mass spectroscopy; and (2) to experimentally treat Takotsubo syndrome with drugs against the identified targets in the case of (a) a single stress and (b) repeated stress. Work on small laboratory animals.
