Post-doctoral researcher in Genome Stability

The mechanism of meiotic double-strand breaks formation via the checkpoint kinase Tel1/ATM will be investigated by the researcher using standard molecular biology assays as well as novel methodology developed in the laboratory or by our collaborators (Matt Neale laboratory, Brighton, UK). For more information and informal discussion contact valerie-c.garcia@inserm.fr.

Applications are invited for a postdoctoral Research Fellow position based in the Cancer Research Centre of Marseille (CRCM), France, in the Genome Dynamics and Recombination team
(http://crcm.marseille.inserm.fr/en/researchteams/bertrand-llorente/).

This is a 3 years ANR funded position to start during the first semester of 2017.
The CRCM is a leading cancer research centre in France, combining basic, translational and clinical research at the heart of the Institute Paoli-Calmettes in Marseille.
The appointed postdoc will be in charge to decipher the mechanism of Tel1/ATM-dependent control of meiotic DNA double-strand breaks formation in the yeast genetic model S. cerevisiae (Garcia et al, Nature 2015).
