Postdoctoral Researcher (M/F) in Cell and Molecular Biology – 24 months Role of the RNA Damage Response in Cellular Plasticity and Chemotherapy Resistance in Lymphomas

CNRS · Laboratoire de Biologie Tissulaire et d'Ingénierie Thérapeutique

  • LYON 07, France
  • Biological sciences

Cellular plasticity is a major mechanism by which tumor cells adapt to microenvironmental constraints, particularly nutrient deprivation. In lymphomas, resistance to chemotherapy, including asparaginase-based treatments, is partly driven by the activation of molecular pathways that enable tumor cells to adapt to stress and maintain their survival. This project aims to characterize the signaling pathways and RNA Damage Response (RDR) mechanisms involved in cellular plasticity and therapeutic escape in lymphoma. In particular, we will investigate how alterations in RNA integrity and function are
