Group leader positions at the Imagine Institute for Genetic Diseases
The Imagine Institute for Genetic Diseases, located in the Necker Enfants malades Hospital campus in the heart of Paris, is inviting applications for group leader positions. Imagine is an interdisciplinary research centre with excellent core facilities for genomics, cell imaging, flow cytometry, bioinformatics, pathophysiology and animal housing for transgenic mice and zebra fish.

Applications may focus on any field directly linked or related to the basis, pathophysiology and treatment of genetic diseases, with special emphasis on:
-Neuroscience, Development and stem cells and computational biology.
Appointments will be made at a junior or senior level, depending on experience.
