Work Environment
The CBI is a multidisciplinary institute comprising 40 research teams, including a community of 9 fly labs. The lab is at the crossroads between the Stem Cells and Development Biology, and Molecular and Cellular Neurobiology Programs.
The lab is housed in a brand new building and benefits from CBI core facilities, including a Light Imaging Facility with state-of-the-art equipment (including 16 image acquisition workstations such as two-photon in vivo imaging microscopy, spinning disk/confocal scanning, optical tweezers and super resolution setups), behaviour rigs, and a dedicated fly rearing facility.
Living Environment
Did we say that the beautiful city of Toulouse is nicely located in the South-West of France? Right by the Pyrenees, it is within an hour and a half to several ski resorts and the beaches on the Mediterranean Coast. It is the fourth-largest city in France, housing three top-ranked universities with the second largest student population in the country. Students consistently rank Toulouse among the best French cities to live and study.
