The "Laboratory of Excellence" Labex SIGNALIFE is a network for Innovation on Signal transduction pathways in Life Sciences. To strengthen its research on signaling pathways, SIGNALIFE is launching an international call for 5 Chairs of Excellence to recruit scientific leaders who will establish a new research group in each of the SIGNALIFE institutes of biology at the Université Côte d'Azur in Nice-Sophia Antipolis (France): C3M, iBV, IPMC, IRCAN, ISA, possibly in association with Inria. Deadline March 1, 2021. Please find documents relating to the call, and all information necessary to apply, on our website: https://signalife.univ-cotedazur.fr/index_old.php?page_id=13751

CONDITIONS
The selected scientist will receive a SIGNALIFE starter package (up to €600,000) for up to five years including operating costs (€100,000) and salaries (group leader/post-doc/PhD student/technician, up to €500,000). He/she will be provided with lab and office space and will have full access to basic laboratory equipment, and to facilities and state-of-the-art technology platforms in the institute and on the campus. He/she will be supported by dedicated university services for short-term lodging upon arrival (Faculty Club), given practical and administrative advice and assistance (Welcome Center) and will receive appropriate help and support to apply in the future for other highly competitive national and European programs and for a French academic research position (if applicable).
