The Marseille Developmental Biology Institute (IBDM) is recruiting group leaders
Posted by Delphine Dauga, on 20 January 2025
The Institut de Biologie du Développement de Marseille (IBDM) is inviting applications for group leader positions. We are seeking innovative researchers who aim to address fundamental questions in biology, including the development, function, and dynamics of complex biological systems.
Our Mission
Research at the IBDM synergistically integrates developmental biology with molecular, cell, and computational biology, as well as evolution, biophysics, neurobiology, physiology, and physiopathology. Affiliated with CNRS and Aix-Marseille University (AMU), the IBDM uniquely fosters interdisciplinarity through strong connections with physicists, computational scientists, and mathematicians (via the CENTURI program). The institute also contributes to major federative programs at AMU, tackling key challenges in Neuroscience, Cancer and Immunology, Rare Diseases, and Imaging.
Our collaborative and international scientific culture, English as the working language, and exceptional location on a campus in the heart of the Calanques National Park make the IBDM a unique place to conduct world-class research.
What We Offer
- A generous start-up package.
- Access to state-of-the-art core facilities, including advanced light and electron microscopy and top-tier animal facilities (mouse, Drosophila, Xenopus).
- A commitment to mentoring, with support to secure a tenured position (CNRS or AMU) and extramural funding (ATIP/Avenir, ERC, FRM, etc.).
- A strong emphasis on equality, diversity, and inclusivity in our working environment.
Application Process
Interested candidates should submit a single PDF file containing:
- A cover letter outlining their motivation to join the IBDM.
- A CV, including the date of PhD defense.
- A summary of main research achievements (maximum 2 pages).
- A detailed research project (maximum 5 pages).
- Contact details for three references.
Applications and queries should be sent to the search committee at ibdm-call@univ-amu.fr.
Application Deadline: March 30, 2025
Selected candidates will be invited for in-person interviews scheduled for June 2025.
