2. Research project or operation

Photo-Induced Adaptation of Bio-Inspired Vesicles Surroundings

3. Activities

ㆍDescription of the research activities :

The project aims to build novel self-assembled lipid systems capable of light-triggered adaptation of their surrounding pH that would be the path for a directional cargo flux. The innovation relies on the emergence of a spatio-temporal controlled proton gradient in the surrounding of vesicles due to the use of molecular machines. This bio-inspired system will be built in a supramolecular bottom-up approach combining light-responsive molecular machines and selfassembling systems.

4. Skills

ㆍQualifications/knowledge :

PhD degree in organic chemistry with a solid knowledge in organic synthesis

ㆍOperational skills/expertise :

Organic synthesis

Good communication skills (written and oral)

Ability to interact with several partners in a multi-disciplinary environment

ㆍPersonal qualities :

Independent, proactive with driving force

5. Environment and context of work

ㆍPresentation of the laboratory/unity :

The Charles Sadron Institute (ICS) is a world-class research institute specializing in polymers and self-assembled systems.

Located in Cronenbourg, the ICS is a “Unité Propre” (UPR 22), i.e., an independent research unit of the CNRS, associated with the Institute of Chemistry (INC) and the Institute of Physics (INP) of the CNRS. It is also associated with the University of Strasbourg and INSA Strasbourg, with strong links to the Physics and Engineering UFR, the ECPM and the Faculty of Chemistry. The ICS is a key player in the Carnot Mica Institute and in the Federation of the Materials and Nanosciences Research of the Grand Est, and is involved in numerous national and international networks.

Structured in eight research teams and Seven platforms, the ICS brings together 53 researchers and teacher-researchers, 38 engineers, technicians and administrative staff and around 100 doctoral students, post-docs, associate researchers and internship students.

Following a multidisciplinary approach, the scientific mission of the Institute covers the science of polymers and self-assembled systems, from the mechanisms of formation of macromolecules to the fundamental understanding of their properties, both in dilute and condensed phases.

With more than 100 publications per year, our current project focuses on the interface between chemistry, physical chemistry, and experimental and theoretical physics, addressing both fundamental and applied questions related to societal needs.

ㆍHierarchical relationship :

The researcher will join the SAMS team under the supervision of Dr. Rémi Plamont (CNRS Research Scientist).
