Post-docs & researchers / Décembre 2025

A two-year (one-year renewable) postdoc position funded by INSERM is available at the Institut de la Vision (IDV) for a highly motivated postdoctoral researcher to understand the molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying VEGF resistance in several eye diseases and evaluate next generation treatments.

A post-doctoral position is available to design innovative closed-loop bidirectionnal brain-machine interfacing of our miniature upper-limb prosthesis.

The candidate will be in charge of performing and analyzing pharmacological tests on non-human primates (NHPs) who perform behavioral tasks addressing approach and food avoidance. He/she will be responsible for the processing of behavioral data as well as multimodal PET (positron emission tomography) imaging and MRI performed on these animals.

In this project, the postdoctoral researcher (renewable term) will develop new approaches to examine the neural representation of social relationships in primates, combining neuroimaging and touchscreen behavioral testing.
In the second project, the postdoctoral researcher (renewable term) will study how different sensory modalities (vision, audition, olfaction) give rise to the same social concepts, combining neuroimaging and neurophysiology. These approaches will constitute a first step toward understanding the neuronal mechanisms underlying the creation of social concepts in primates.

Using neuron- and synapse-specific approaches in mice, the candidate will dissect how early adversity modulates epigenetic marks in the mouse cerebellum.
