| Who to contact | Celine ELIE-CAILLE |
| Job Title | CHAIRE PROFESSEUR JUNIOR Section 63 Campagne 2025 / TENURE TRACK POSITION in micro-nanotechnology for healthcare |
| A detailed offer: | RESEARCH ACTIVITIES |
| The CPJ will join and strengthen the international leadership position of FEMTO-ST research lab, by providing skills in the online and on-chip qualification of biomedicines in synergy with the multidisciplinary expertise already present in the UMR and in conjunction with health laboratories from UMLP. | |
| In an international context of innovation for biotherapy, the CPJ’s scientific project focuses on proposing new methods and original microsystems for the qualification (online or on a microfluidic chip) of acellular & cellular biomedicines (and their by-products). The systems could also enable the identification and trapping of potential contaminants in the production line. | |
| The CPJ will propose the development of Lab-On-Chip, Organ- On-Chip and/or analytical methods for bioanalysis, based on nano- and microtechnologies. Thus, the recruited person will be able to respond to scientific challenges such as: | |
| (i) development and integration of microfluidic components, bio-mi- crosensors and actuators within lab-on-chip and organ-on-chip type devices, | |
| (ii) development of innovative microtransducers and the associated bio-interfaces for the quantification of rare biological elements in complex fluid | |
| iii) multi-scale and multiplex analytical methodologies based on engineered substrates for the multimodal and discriminative detection and nanocharacterization of biological or bioengineered objects, | |
| (iv) microsystems allowing the elucidation of mechanisms of action, functions and interactions of objects such as: cells, vesicles or macromolecular complexes, directly in their bioproduction environment and/or in complex biofluids. | |
| This position is an opportunity to join the Nano2BIO team (https://teams.femto-st.fr/nano2bio/en), led by Celine Elie-Caille (linkedin.com/in/celine-elie-caille) | |
| TEACHING ACTIVITIES | |
| The lecturer-researcher recruited at the CPJ will be appointed to the ISIFC school, which offers an engineering program and an international master’s degree in biomedical engineering. The recruited candidate will teach in French and English in the fields of electronics and/or applied physics dedicated to medical devices. | |

| A detailed offer: | Evaluation of the therapeutic potential of engineered extracellular vesicles to modulate antigen-specific immune responses in type 1 diabetes. |
| Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is an autoimmune disease caused by the destruction of insulin-producing beta cells in the pancreatic islets of Langerhans. This results in chronic hyperglycaemia and life-long insulin dependency. Despite notable improvements in diabetes care, no cure exists to date and patients experience serious long-term complications and reduced life expectancy. Ideally, the preservation or restoration of antigen-specific tolerance would allow to prevent and treat T1D, all while avoiding deleterious effects associated with systemic immune suppression. | |
| In this context, extracellular vesicles (EV) are promising candidates for therapeutic innovation. These membrane-bound nanovesicles released by living cells support intercellular communication through transfer of protein, genetic, lipidic and other materials across long distances. | |
| EVs derived from mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are particularly notable for their well-documented immunomodulatory and regenerative properties. The central hypothesis of the present project is that MSC-derived EVs engineered to express pancreatic beta-cell antigens, could promote antigen-specific tolerance in the context of T1D. | |
| The project aims are (i) to develop engineered EV expressing beta-cell antigens in collaboration with an industrial partner, (ii) to establish the proof of concept for antigen-specific tolerance induced by engineered MSC-EV in murine models, and (iii) to evaluate the immunomodulatory properties of these EVs in vitro on immune cells derived from a cohort of type 1 diabetic patients in collaboration with the endocrinology department of the University Hospital of Nantes (NCT01042301, https://clinicaltrials.gov/). | |
| The candidate must have completed a Master’s degree (Master 2 or equivalent) in experimental research in immunology, innovative therapy or similar research fields | |
| The candidate must demonstrate the ability to work in a team, skills in communication and scientific writing as well as proficiency in spoken and written English. A certification in animal experimentation would be appreciated. | |
