The Berthelot lab at Institut Pasteur in Paris has an opening for a postdoctoral researcher to join our team on a 2M€ grant project to explore the functional mechanisms of rapid evolution in mammals.

Our team focuses on the uterus, a fascinating yet understudied organ in mammals. Despite its central role in mammalian reproduction, the uterus evolves very rapidly, driven by a continuous evolutionary crosstalk to optimize maternal/embryonic interactions. We want to understand how uterine gene expression programs have repeatedly evolved to produce dramatic phenotypes such as menstruation or invasive embryo implantation – two rare traits that appeared during primate evolution, but have also evolved independently in other mammalian groups. To answer these exciting questions, we perform single-cell multi-omics of fresh tissues and organoid models of the uterine mucosa across humans, primates and mammals.

You will join a multidisciplinary, highly collaborative lab and will have flexibility to address varied biological questions within our core project. The postdoctoral project will be developed in collaboration with the candidate to fit your skills and interests.
