Offer Description
We are seeking for a highly motivated and talented young scientist interested by molecular and cellular mechanisms involved in cortical development. The postdoctoral fellow will join an ERC-funded project in the team ‘regulation of cortical development in health and disease’ headed by Juliette Godin at the Institute of Genetics and Molecular and Cellular Biology (IGBMC), Strasbourg, France. The Godin lab is provided with a fully equipped molecular and biochemistry laboratory, and is embedded in a highly collaborative and multidisciplinary environment. The candidate will benefit from an excellent work environment, including various state‑of‑the art research facilities at IGBMC and at the Mouse clinical Institute and international collaborations. Located in Illkirch near Strasbourg, France, the IGBMC is one of the leading European centers of biomedical research.
Our team “Regulation of cortical development in health and disease” focus on the identification of new molecular pathways that promote the formation of the cerebral cortex. Our group combine mouse genetic and molecular and cellular techniques to: 1/ investigate the regulatory mechanisms of cortical development and 2/ better understand the pathological mechanisms that affect neurogenesis in neurological disorders.
The overarching goal of this ERC-funded project is to define how tRNA pools regulate cell fate acquisition during mammalian corticogenesis. In this project, the postdoc fellow will combine genome wide approaches (tRNA and ribosome sequencing) and mouse genetics to understand how the traduction is controlled during mouse cerebral cortex neurogenesis.
The candidate should hold a PhD degree, with a background in either neuroscience or molecular biology.The ideal candidate has previous experience with animal work or omic data analysis.
The position will be open until December 2026.
