Description de l'offre
Laboratory: BIOMICS LAB, IRIG, CEA Grenoble (UGA/Inserm/CEA), 17 avenue des Martyrs, 38 054 Grenoble, France. Head of lab: Xavier Gidrol.
Project context: Diabetes is a growing threat to global health, affecting 463 million people worldwide in 2019, or 1 in 11 adults. The World Health Organization predicts that 578 million people will suffer from diabetes in 2030. Diabetes, type 1 or 2, cause an abnormal and prolonged increase of the blood glucose level, mainly caused by deficiency or failure to use insulin. In the long term, diabetes can lead to many complications, including vasculopathy, neuropathy, retinopathy, and diabetic foot ulcer.
Cell replacement therapy is possible for some patients, called pancreatic islet transplantation, which has recently been accepted into routine care by the French “Haute Autorité de Santé”. Despite the effectiveness of this therapy some weaknesses remain, highlighting the need to have a relevant human model, to understand the decline of pancreatic islets transplant in order to finely-tune the treatment for each grafted patient.
In this context, we aim at personalized medicine for T1D patients’ ongoing pancreatic islet transplantation.
Project description: This candidate will be using native human islets and be focused on the cryopreservation of native islets, be involved in islet-on-chip experiments (with a PhD student), and will focus on immunity assessment with the patient’s samples, to answer the personalized medicine challenges. The candidate will work closely with our research team and collaborate with our partners (CEA Leti, CHU Grenoble).
The candidate will perform cell culture and cryopreservation, microfluidics, transcriptomics analysis, image analysis and quantification.
In line with CEA's commitment to the integration of disabled people, this job is open to all. The CEA offers accommodation and/or organisational possibilities for the inclusion of disabled workers
