Applicants are invited for a 3-4 year position within a research group led by Dr. Olivier Lantz to work on the cell biology of MR1 restricted antigen presentation toMAITcells.

In the group, the team studyingMAITcell biology encompasses 6 persons: 1 staff-scientist, 3 post-doc, 1 PhD student, 1 graduate student and 1 technician.

The group is part of a 90-person immunology department headed by S. Amigorena. The lab is located within the Institut Curie campus in the center of Paris. The building is equipped with state of the art facilities (imaging, proteomic, genomic and cytometry). The Institute hosts around 1000 bench scientists including many foreign post-doctoral fellows.

Candidates will have aPh.D. in immunology or cell biology + first Post-doc. ASTRONGEXPERIENCEINCELLBIOLOGYANDMICROSCOPYTECHNICSISMANDATORY.
Candidates should have demonstrated success in previous experience in cell biology testified by publications in the field. Solid experience in molecular biology and biochemistry is also required.
High motivation, autonomy and ability to quickly and effectively develop the proposed project in relation with the group leader and collaborators specialized in cell biology will be essential.
Written and spoken English is mandatory.

Please send CV, motivation letter and contact details of at least two persons able to provide references toolivier.lantz@curie.net
