Offer Description

The University of Bordeaux is a great dynamic and responsible university that cares about the well-being of its staff. Joining us means working in a privileged environment within a particularly diverse and open professional community, benefiting from welcome and inclusion schemes, training and internal mobility. It means participating in an academic, scientific and human adventure. It means committing to meeting the challenges of the 21st century.

Join the Institute of Cardiac Rhythm Diseases (IHU Liryc), from the University of Bordeaux!

This IHU is invested with a quadruple mission of research, care, innovation and teaching, at the service of the patient. It aims to better understand and treat electrical dysfunctions of the heart that are the cause of many cardiovascular diseases representing nearly a third of deaths worldwide.

As part of the national CARDIO-LAMIN project, we are recruiting a Post-Doctoral Researcher whose work will focus on the identification of mechanistic biomarkers and risk prediction in cardiolaminopathy (LMNA).

Main activities:

Your mission will be to design and conduct studies aimed at characterizing the electrophysiological, structural and inflammatory remodeling related to LMNA mutations. You will integrate multimodal data: imaging, signals, Omics, clinical, and contribute to analyses for risk prediction.

• You implement acquisitions (optical mapping, micro-CT) on relevant tissues/organs and models
• You optimise sampling, marking and tissue preparation protocols
• You ensure the quality, traceability and initial analysis of data

Data integration & analysis

• You integrate imaging data, electrophysiological signals, Omics and clinical information
• You set up reproducible analysis pipelines
• You contribute to the development of indicators and biomarkers and their cross‑validation

Transfer & project management

• You contribute to the production of deliverables, meetings, reports and the preparation of publications
• You interact with partners (clinical, modelling, preclinical) and with technology platforms
• You participate in internal training/mentoring and scientific dissemination actions

You may be required to supervise Master’s degree or Engineer interns.
