Postdoctoral - Cardiac Regeneration (Microscopy) (M/F)

Institut Curie is a major player in the research and fight against cancer. It consists of a Hospital group and a Research Center of more than 1000 employees with a strong international objective of the Research Center is to develop basic research and to use the knowledge produced to improve the diagnosis, prognosis, and therapeutics of cancers as part of the continuum between basic research and innovation serving the patient.

We are looking for a highly motivated and productive post-doctoral fellow to join our team “Mechanisms of Cardiac Regeneration” headed by Phong NGUYEN (), at Institut Curie, Paris, France. Our research interests focus on uncovering the factors and mechanisms that allow the zebrafish heart to naturally recover and regenerate from an injury.
