The François Jacob Institute of Biology brings together five departments and three services
The last two years in scientific news
The CEA is recruiting a Head of Radiotoxicology Laboratory (on a permanent position (CDI), to work at the Bruyères-le-Châtel and Fontenay-aux-Roses sites. Within the DRF, our laboratory is part of the Department of Cellular and Molecular Radiobiology (DRCM), which is dedicated to research in radiobiology, radiotoxicology, DNA repair, genomic stability, tissue regeneration, and oncogenesis, through the use of cellular and preclinical models. The Radiotoxicology Laboratory (LRT) is a radioactive ICPE-classified unit that conducts research on actinides and other radionuclides, combining biology, physics, medicine, and pharmacy. In particular, it contributes to understanding the fate of radionuclides in the body and to the development of post-exposure treatments, in connection with NRBC issues and nuclear medicine.

The position will be attached to the Stem Cells and Radiation Service (SCSR), which is one of the three services of the Department of Cellular and Molecular Radiobiology (DRCM, https://jacob.cea.fr/drf/ifrancoisjacob/Pages/Departements/IRCM/IRCM.aspx), which is part of the Francois Jacob Institute of Biology and the Fundamental Research Directorate of the CEA. Located in Fontenay-aux-Roses (10 km from Paris city centre), the DRCM (Department of Clinical Research and Management) dedicates its work to research in radiation biology, DNA repair, genomic stability, tissue regeneration, and oncogenesis, using cellular and preclinical models. The SCSR (Center for Scientific and Clinical Research) brings together laboratories working on the biology of several types of somatic (brain, blood, skin) and germline stem cells in humans and mice. The SCSR is interested in their tissue regeneration potential, their responses to ionizing radiation, and their permissiveness to cancerous transformation. The SCSR focuses these themes on cellular and molecular mechanistic aspects with the aim of translational applications within regional, national, and international clinical scientific networks. The recruited Researcher, a future Principal Investigator (PI) in Stem Cell Biology and Radiobiology, will work in the field of germ cells or hematopoietic cells and contribute to research with a strong fundamental and translational impact. They will develop cutting-edge projects primarily within the SCSR laboratories working on hematopoiesis (Team Niche, Cancer and Radiation in Hematopoiesis, PI: F Pflumio) or on germline differentiation (Team Germline Differentiation, PI: G Livera).
CEA is a French government-funded technological research organisation in four main areas: low-carbon energies, defense and security, information technologies and health technologies. A prominent player in the European Research Area, it is involved in setting up collaborative projects with many partners around the world.
