POSTDOCTORAL POSITION IN MUSCULOSKELETAL REGENERATION AND STEM
CELLS
INSTITUT NATIONAL DE LA SANTE ET DE LA RECHERCHE MEDICALE
INSERM UMR1163, INSTITUT IMAGINE, PARIS, FRANCE
We are seeking applicants for a Postdoctoral Scholar position to join the Laboratory of
Skeletal Regeneration at INSERM UMR1163, Institut Imagine, Paris, France.
The successful applicant will use molecular and cellular analyses, cell lineage analyses
and cell sorting techniques to assess the origins and functions of skeletal stem cells that
contribute to bone repair in murine model systems. The experimental goals of this
defined project will be to examine the mechanisms of skeletal stem cell recruitment and
differentiation during the early stages of bone healing in mice, and the role of musclebone crosstalk in musculoskeletal regeneration. In addition to completing this funded
research, the candidate will be strongly encouraged to develop complimentary research
objectives that will lead to fellowship funding.
The applicants should be recent PhD awardees who are highly motivated and energetic
(equivalent foreign training/experience acceptable). Ability in initiating, conducting,
evaluating and reporting of research studies is essential. Applicants should have
background in computational and experimental methods. Applicants should have a
background in muscle and/or bone biology, molecular biology, in vivo models, primary
cell culture methods, flow cytometry and histological analyses. Animal experience is
preferred.
