Post-doctoral position in Cell and Developmental biology
  Institute of Genetics and Development, Rennes, France

A   post-doctoral   position   is   available   in  the   laboratory   of   Roland   Le   Borgne   for   a period    of  2   or  3  years    starting  early   2012.   We    are  interested    in  functional characterization of the role of clathrin adaptor AP-1 in the spatio-temporal regulation of   the   Notch   signaling   pathway   and   the   regulation   of   epithelial  cell   polarity.   The proposed project aims to gain further insight in the function of AP-1 during Drosophila development using different type of microscopy   alongside   biochemical,   cell   biology and genetic approaches.

The team is part of the Institut de Génétique et Développement de Rennes (IGDR; http://www.umr6061.univ-rennes1.fr/)   dedicated   to   interactive   research   in   Genetic, Developmental,   Cell   Biology   and   Cell   Biophysics   approaches.   The   team   benefits from state of the art core facilities including advanced  light and electron microscopy services.

We   are   looking   for   a   motivated   candidate   with   a   PhD   and   validated   experience   in genetics, cell biology and/or electron microscopy. Current position has no nationality restrictions.   IGDR    is  an  equal   opportunity   employer.     Complete    CV    and  contact information     for  at  least  two  referees   should   be  sent   to Dr   Roland    Le   Borgne (roland.leborgne@univ-rennes1.fr)
