Job opportunities
Study of the epithelial connectivity during the intestinal development
The master project (M2) aims at characterizing the epithelial connectivity and collective behavior of the intestinal differentiated domain in homeostatic conditions or under challenging contexts.
Identifying sexually dimorphic genes controlled by inter-allelic interactions
During the Master’s project (M1 or M2), the student will use some of the techniques used in the laboratory to quantitatively interrogate the structure-function relationship underlying interallelic interactions.
Sensing mechanical forces during epithelial remodeling in the Placozoan Trichoplax adhaerens
The M1 student will learn micromanipulation, live confocal imaging, immunofluorescence and quantitative modelling techniques.
Modulation of fibrogenesis and adipogenesis during skeletal muscle regeneration
During this master project (M2) the student will apply the above method to obtain proof of principle that targeting selected candidate genes can efficiently induce or suppress intramuscular adipose tissue formation.
Investigating cooption of developmental programs in a chick model of medulloblastoma
During this M2 project, the student will work on a recently developed model of medulloblastoma in the chick embryo.
Dynamics of PRC1 chromatin factors during neuronal differentiation and reprogramming
During this master project (M1 or M2), the student will analyze the dynamics of PRC1 dots during neuronal specification and maintenance by in vivo time-lapse imaging, and characterize the nature of these dots.
