Highlights:
1. A post-doctoral position is available at the Institut Curie, Paris, France, for a physicist or a physico-chemist to work on the mechanical properties of responsive polymersomes and on their use in cell biology.
2. The aim of this interdisciplinary work is to design new classes of sensitive polymer vesicles, to characterize their mechanical properties and responses upon stimulus application, using techniques such as micropipette aspiration and optical tweezers, and to investigate some potential applications in the field of drug delivery (in collaboration with biologists from the Institut Curie).
3. Position profile : Solid knowledge in microscopy techniques and membrane/polymer physics is required. Some knowledge of microfluidics, polymer chemistry or cell biology will be an advantage for the applicant.
4. The project is funded by the ANR (Agence nationale de la recherche).
5. For any question about this program, or to submit an application (CV and 2 letters of recommendation),
