PhD positions Laboratory of Tumor and Development Biology (LBTD), GIGA
Offer DescriptionThe Laboratory of Tumor and Development Biology at the University of Liège, Belgium (GIGA) has two opening positions for PhD candidates.Project summaries * The first project aims to investigate the effect of chemotherapy on ovarian function and develop better methods to preserve fertility in young cancer survivors (promoter C. Munaut). As survival rates continue to improve, post-treatment fertility has become a major concern. We are specifically looking at the gonadotoxic effects of chemotherapy, particularly the role of alkylating agents, to assess how different preservation strategies affect long-term ovarian function. The project will be divided into two parts. The first part will evaluate the mechanism of toxicity and ovarian function in mouse models and human tissues after chemotherapy and their impact on ovarian tissue cryopreservation (OTC). The second part will explore new pharmacological approaches to protect ovarian function, targeting specific pathways involved in drug toxicity.
TechniquesThe two projects rely on a panel of original in vivo and in vitro assays. It combines cellular, biochemical and molecular biology techniques (cell culture, Western Blotting, RT-qPCR, immunohistochemistry, flow cytometry, single cell RNA sequencing, mouse models…).ProfileThe candidates must hold a master degree (MSc) in biomedical sciences, biology or biochemistry (or equivalent).
