We are recruiting a Group Leader in Onco-Hematology / Immuno-Oncology
The Cancer Research Center of Marseille (CRCM) is inviting applications for a Group Leader
position to establish a new research team within the Onco-Hematology and Immuno-Oncology
Department (OHIO). This position is intended to enhance our capability for basic science
and/or translational research capacity at the intersection of basic mechanisms, innovative
therapies and clinical implementation in hematologic cancers and cancer immunology.
With over 450 collaborators spread across four departments, including the OHIO Department,
the CRCM is an international research center affiliated with Inserm, CNRS, Aix-Marseille
University and the Paoli-Calmettes Cancer Institute (IPC). The CRCM brings together
interdisciplinary teams working on oncogenesis, tumor microenvironment, immune responses
to cancer and biomarker discovery. It works closely with the IPC, a nonprofit general hospital
with recognized expertise in the field of hematologic malignancies and early-phase clinical
trials of cutting-edge therapies.
The appointed Group Leader will establish an innovative research program in
onco-hematology and/or immuno-oncology, emphasizing a robust fundamental/translational
aspects and seamless integration within the CRCM–IPC ecosystem.
The successful candidate will receive a start-up package and have a privileged access to
cutting-edge technological platforms for multi-omics (including proteomics, single-cell,
genomics, and spatial-omics), imaging and flow cytometry (including Immunomonitoring), drug
screening and testing, and computational biology. The integrated CRCM–IPC environment
offers direct access to patient samples and cohorts, and early-phase trials at IPC, providing a
unique framework for ambitious translational research.
The CRCM will provide engaged mentoring to the selected candidate to obtain a tenure
position (CNRS or Inserm) and to secure extra funding (ATIP/Avenir, INCa, ANR, ERC etc..).
Researchers with permanent positions are also invited to apply.
The CRCM is committed to promoting equality, diversity and inclusivity.
