Description du poste

The UMR1231 Laboratory, affiliated with the Institut National de la Santé et de la Recherche Médicale (INSERM) and Université Bourgogne Europe (UBE), invites applications for a Postdoctoral Researcher position. The selected candidate will apply, with the support of the host laboratory, for competitive fellowships (e.g., La Fondation ARC), with a funding duration of 24 to 36 months.

We particularly encourage applications from French early-career researchers who have completed a postdoctoral stay abroad and wish to continue their scientific career in France. This position offers a strong platform for a second postdoctoral experience and preparation for long-term opportunities, including the INSERM CR (Chargé de Recherche) recruitment competitions.

Research Focus

The team’s work centers on the development of nanoparticles for cancer therapy, with a particular emphasis on targeting immune cells. Research activities involve preclinical studies in small animal models, especially mouse models of cancer.

Profile Required

PhD degree in life sciences or related fields (cancer biology, immunology, molecular biology, nanomedicine, etc.).

Postdoctoral research experience, ideally including international training, is highly valued.

Strong scientific track record, including:

• At least one peer‑reviewed publication from doctoral studies.

• At least one additional peer‑reviewed publication during postdoctoral research.

• Motivation, autonomy, and enthusiasm for developing innovative cancer research projects.

Research Environment

The successful candidate will join a dynamic, interdisciplinary team at Université Bourgogne Europe.

The laboratory, based in Dijon, France, offers access to cutting‑edge facilities, including:

Molecular and cellular biology platforms

Flow cytometry and advanced bio‑imaging technologies

Researchers also benefit from UBE’s comprehensive core facilities.

Application Requirements

Detailed Curriculum Vitae.

List of publications, with relevant works highlighted.

Letters of recommendation from previous supervisors or collaborators.
