Institut Cochin is opening a position for a scientist wishing to establish his/her independent team
Institut Cochin is a leading French Biological Research Center, affiliated with Inserm, CNRS and Université Paris Cité, and located on the campus of Cochin Hospital. Its 33 independent research teams focus on fundamental and translational research within the scientific axes: Cancer, Immunology, Metabolism & Endocrinology, Microbiology, Cellular Plasticity & Reproduction.
