Postdoctoral Fellow

Cell biology experiments on cultured cells:

• Human cell culture (HeLa)
• Transient transfection and generation of stable clones
• Protein biochemistry experiments (Western blotting, immunoprecipitation)
• Light microscopy experiments (spinning disk, confocal)
• electron microscopy experiments in collaboration with the Imagoseine platform
• maintaining a lab notebook
• making oral presentations
• drafting manuscripts

The position is available at the Institut Jacques Monod (IJM) in the “Intracellular Traffic and Membrane Dynamics” team led by Jean-Marc Verbavatz and Cathy Jackson. Using cell biology approaches, particularly microscopy techniques, the team focuses on transport occurring at membrane contact sites during complex processes such as cell migration and division. The goal of the proposed postdoctoral project is to study the role of the ORP3 protein in regulating lipids at the plasma membrane, and its importance in mitosis (see Vertueux et al., bioRxiv 2025.10.22.684039).
