Description of the project:

In the framework of a project financed by the Haut de France region (START'AIIR Program), we are recruiting a lab technician (in French “ingénieur d’étude”, IgE) at the University of Lille. He/she will be attached to the project leaders of the 2 laboratories UMET (Faculty of Sciences and Technologies) and INSERM U1008 (UFR3s) of the University of Lille. The IgE will work with a PhD student and/or a Master 2 student on the project to develop a bone glue for maxillofacial and orthopedic surgery. The IgE recruited will be in charge of optimizing the development process, furthering the physico-chemical and mechanical characterization of the glue, and studying the reproducibility and sterilizability of the batches resulting from the optimized formulation. In addition, a significant amount of work will be devoted to the therapeutic efficacy of the adhesive through in vitro (cytotoxicity, biocompatibility) and in vivo (animal model) evaluations.
