Postdoc in Autophagy & Stress (C. elegans)

Cnrs Inc; France; On-site; EUR 36,000 - 48,000; Full time

Job summary

CNRS – Institut de Biologie Intégrative de la Cellule in France seeks a First Stage Researcher (R1) to study the gene regulatory networks governing stress adaptation in C. elegans.

The project combines wet lab work with single-nucleus RNA-Seq and other transcriptomic analyses, leveraging I2BC sequencing facilities. English proficiency is required, independence is essential, and collaboration across partners is expected.

Qualifications

• Solid experience in global transcriptomic analysis and in using specialized computational tools.
• Experience with the C. elegans model is a significant asset.
• High degree of independence and ability to collaborate with team and external partners.
• Fluency in English is required.

Responsibilities

• Conduct thermal stress experiments on C. elegans strains (controls, mutants, fluorescent markers).
• Perform transcriptomic analyses (RT-qPCR, RNA-Seq, snRNA-Seq) from sample prep to bioinformatic analysis.
• Draft progress reports for the project coordinator and present data at team meetings.
• Monitor scientific literature relevant to the project and contribute to publications.
