Offer Description

A postdoctoral position is available in the therapeutic genome editing team under the direction of Dr. Mario Amendola in Genethon, biopark of Evry, France and it is funded by the Horizon Europe (https: // magic-horizon.eu/). This project deals with neuromuscular and musculoskeletal disorders, which are amongst the most frequent causes of disability in Europe. These genetic diseases are characterized by severe skeletal muscle wasting, impaired mobility, reduction of quality of life and premature death. Although supportive treatments are in clinical practice to manage symptoms, there is still no cure for muscular dystrophies. Thus, the overarching objective of our project is the generation of innovative models of human skeletal muscle disorders to develop, screen and validate new neuromuscular gene therapy vectors and genome editing strategies with high efficacy and selective tropism coupled with low toxicity and limited immunogenicity. Relevant publications below. Our laboratory focuses on: 1) developing effective and safe genome editing and gene therapy strategies for the treatment of human genetic diseases, in particular muscular disorders, hemoglobinopathies and lysosomal storage; 2) understanding of these pathologies and their molecular mechanisms; 3) understanding DNA repair and how to modulate/exploit to improve efficacy and safety of genome editing tools.
