The Center for Magnetic Resonance in Biology and Medicine (Centre de Résonance Magnétique Biologique et Médicale: CRMBM), located at the University Hospital of la Timone in Marseille (Director: P.J. Cozzone) is offering a PhD position (36 months) starting September 2009. The position is in the "Muscle Group" headed by D. Bendahan. The CRMBM is located on the Campus of the Medical School in Marseille, adjacent to the University Hospital of la Timone, the largest medical facility in Southern Europe. It is jointly operated and funded by CNRS (National Center for Scientific Research), University of the Mediterranean and the Public Hospital System of Marseille.
The research project is devoted to the Functional, anatomical and metabolic characterization of therapeutic strategies in murine models of Nemaline Myopathy and is part of an international project. Several experimental measurements regarding muscle function are planned using the CRMBM facilities i.e. a dedicated ergometer operating in a 4.7 T Bruker Avance Magnetic Resonance (MR) system[1].
The successful applicant should have experience in skeletal muscle research preferably with MR techniques. Applicants should send a Statement of Research Interests, a Curriculum Vitae, and 3 reference letters to:
