Position open to :: Contract staff
Job description:
The research project aims to study malaria parasites and human host immune responses using advanced transcriptomics, epigenetics, cell biology and proteomics techniques using samples from naturally infected individuals. We are particularly interested in the maternal-fetal interface where the pathogen is sequestered, and in the association between parasite persistence in the placenta and long-term modulation of neonatal and infant immune cells. We are looking for a highly motivated and talented post-doctoral fellow in computer science to join this ANR-funded project. The aim will be to shed light on epigenetic, transcriptomic and functional modifications of immune and placental cells. This position offers the opportunity to conduct innovative research in a supportive and inclusive environment as part of a collaborative, multidisciplinary research team.

You will have developed the following skills: PhD in bioinformatics, computational biology, genomics or a related field. Strong experience in single-cell transcriptomics and experience with data analysis tools. Proficiency in programming languages such as R or Python. Experience in high-performance computing environments. Excellent problem-solving skills and ability to work independently and as part of a team. Strong written and oral communication skills in English. Commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion in the research environment.
