The NMR Laboratory at the Institute of
Myology in Paris, France, is opening a permanent position for a research
engineer or technologist for advanced NMR applications.
The position primarily involves carrying out and analysing advanced,
multiparametric in vivo NMR experiments, in both humans and animal
models, as well as providing software support to other users. However,
research possibilities are open depending on candidate's own interests.
The applicant will be integrated in an experienced multi-disciplinary
team, under the direction of Dr P.G. Carlier, and counting NMR method
scientists and technologists, engineers, physiologists and MD's, all
devoted to the NMR study of muscle disease and physiology.
The candidate should be motivated to participate in both clinical and
pre-clinical research, in a multidisciplinary environment. He should
have experience in NMR imaging and/or spectroscopy, ideally with Bruker
TopSpin or ParaVision packages. He should have some knowledge of Linux
systems and be capable of handling data on a small Linux network.
Excellent communication and organisational skills and the ability to
work both independently and as part of a small team are necessary.
French language skills are appreciated,
but not a requirement. Salary is commensurate with experience, and
includes complete coverage by the French national insurance system.

The joint AIM – CEA NMR research laboratory of the IM is situated in the
Pitié Salpêtrière University Hospital, in the heart of Paris. It is part
of a labelized clinical center of expertise for neuro-muscular
disorders, and specializes in functional and metabolic investigation of
skeletal, cardiac and vascular muscles by in vivo NMR. It also provides
service as a small animal imaging platform. It offers 2 in-house spectro-imagers
that are dedicated to research.
- 4T Bruker Biospec NMR spectrometer-imager, for human limb, large
animal investigations, plus a 20 cm, 200 mT/m gradient insert for small
animals,
- 3T whole-body Siemens Trio TIM, 32 channels, TIM-CT upgrade, 2RF
chains, one broadband,,
- 400 m² lab space,
- 7 permanent researchers and engineers
- strong connections with INSERM, CNRS and Paris VI University.
