Intitulé de l'offre:

Scientist in "Mechanisms involved in the interaction of bacteria with essential or toxic metals" H/F


Statut du poste:

Cadre


Description de l'offre:


A permanent scientist position is open in the team "Interactions Protein-Metal" (IPM) in connection with the "Metal Acquisition and Metalloproteins" group in the team "Environmental Molecular Microbiology" (MEM) within the Bioscience and biotechnology Institute of Aix-Marseille located in the Cadarache Centre, Southern France (Provence).


You will benefit from the expertise of the host team "IPM" and of the "Metal Acquisition and Metalloproteins" group and from the environment of the Bioscience and biotechnology Institute of Aix-Marseille (BIAM), CEA and Aix-Marseille University.

BIAM is interested in the responses of living organisms to environmental constraints and in the mechanisms of conversion of solar energy into energy-rich biomass.

The IPM team is composed of 3 scientists, 2 research engineers, 3 technicians and hosts PhD students and postdocs. The "Metal acquisition and metalloproteins" (Metallo) group is composed of 1 scientist, 1 technician, PhD students and post-docs.


In the IPM team and the "Metallo" group, we investigate the molecular mechanisms involved in metal trafficking and homeostasis in bacteria, as well as their perturbation by non-biologic (toxic) metals and radionuclides.

Metals of interest span lanthanides and actinides, iron, cobalt, zinc, copper and alkaline earths.

with a strong potential impact on society and the bioeconomy.

The topics addressed are radiation protection, decommissioning and remediation, recycling of strategic metals or climate change with CO2 sequestration in alkaline earth carbonates.


The project could benefit from collaborations with the BIAM platforms for the handling of radionuclides (SALTO), for protein production, purification and characterization (ProteinTec), ion dosage with ICP-OES and ICP-MS (Ionotech), confocal and Raman imaging (ZoOM) and of a bioinformatic cell.

The ability to interact with other researchers in the team is very important.

The person recruited will also be expected to write grant proposals and scientific publications and will therefore need good oral communication and writing skills.

He/she will also have to supervise master students, PhD students or post-docs.

A good command of English is essential.

French is not necessary in the laboratory but its learning will be recommended to facilitate the insertion in the social life.
