Inserm salary scale according to experience and associated benefits (vacations, support for public transportation fees)

Interested candidates should send 1) a complete CV, 2) a motivation letter, and 3) contact information for one or two references to Dr. Stéphane Nedelec (stephane.nedelec@inserm.fr). 

Pre-selected candidates will be interviewed and will have the opportunity to exchange with other members of the team during the interview process.

The Institut Jacques Monod, located in central Paris, is a leading international center with a strong collaborative culture offering a highly interactive scientific environment and access to cutting-edge core facilities.

Our team provides a stimulating research environment at the interface of neurodevelopment, cell biology and genomics. We employ a broad range of techniques — organoids, stem cells, omics approaches, and live imaging — to explore principles of cell-fate specification and tissue morphogenesis. We recently moved into newly renovated laboratory space with dedicated culture rooms for human organoids. English is the working language for lab meetings, seminars, and daily communication.
