We are looking for a PhD candidate starting on the 01-10-2025. The project aims to understand how the host cells use copper and oxidative species to fight Salmonella infection and how this pathogen evades this antimicrobial response.

SHORT DEADLINE ! 20-04-2025

First snow this year in Touraine, France at my workplace (it’s been a few years without I heard)! Cold 🥶 but so happy to see some snow ⛄️

Looking for PostDoc - Metabolism/Salmonella. We are looking for candidates with excellent knowledge in bioinformatics and bacterial physiology / microbial ecology.

We will help the candidate to build a successful application for
European grants such as EMBO and Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions.

With all the new people, perhaps I should post an introduction.

I am an immunologist identifying new antimicrobial responses in macrophages. My current research focuses on the use of metal ions (Zn & Cu) vs Salmonella infection. Always love to meet new faces and set up new collaborations. 🔬🦠

Good News !
We are looking for a PhD student to work on understanding the role of zinc in the host response to Salmonella. How macrophage use the Zn? How Salmonella resist Zn and can escape this antimicrobial weapon? Deadline 31.05.24 to start 01-10-2024.

Biology is never simple ! I’m happy to share our new publication on the role of HDAC6 on inflammasome. We used several methods (KO mouse, inhibitors, DARPIN…) to show that HDAC6 is NOT always driving the inflammasome and is context-dependent. DOI:https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jbc.2024.105638

Good news ! I’m looking for a post-doc (1 year ½ contract) to join our MiMoSa team at the @INRAE_VDL . Host-pathogen interaction project on understanding the dynamic of Zn and Cu during Salmonella infection. Deadline: Feb 11th, 2024. jobs.inrae.fr/en/ot-19561

I finally made it onto BlueSky !
I'm rebuilding my network slowly. I will try to update regularly my profile with (mostly) science while setting up my research at the INRAE ! Macrophages, Salmonella, metal ions (zinc) & mitochondria
