A propos du centre ou de la direction fonctionnelle
The Inria centre at Université Côte d'Azur includes 42 research teams and 9 support services. The centre's staff (about 500 people) is made up of scientists of dierent nationalities, engineers, technicians and administrative staff. The teams are mainly located on the university campuses of Sophia Antipolis and Nice as well as Montpellier, in close collaboration with research and higher education laboratories and establishments (Université Côte d'Azur, CNRS, INRAE, INSERM...), but also with the regiona economic players.
With a presence in the fields of computational neuroscience and biology, data science and modeling, software engineering and certification, as well as collaborative robotics, the Inria Centre at Université Côte d'Azur is a major player in terms of scientific excellence through its results and collaborations at both European and international levels.
Contexte et atouts du poste
This engineer position willbe located inthe Inria-Inserm team COMPO (COMputational Pharmacology in Oncology), located in the La Timone health campus. The team is composed of mathematicians, data scientists, pharmacists and clinicians and is a unique multidisciplinary environment focused on developing novel computational tools for decision-making in clinical oncology.Theengineer will join the INCa- (French National Cancer Institute) funded project COPYCAT : Combining Organoid technology with Mathematics to develop innovative models mimicking tumor cellular heterogeneity and plasticity for pediatric oncology. IT is a collaboration between
- Laura Broutier's team (Cell death and childhood cancers team, Center of Research on Cancer of Lyon (CRCL), Inserm, CNRS)
- Eddy Pasquier's team (REMAP-4Kids, Center of Research on Cancer of Marseille (CRCM), Inserm, CNRS)
- COMPO (Inria and CRCM, Marseille)
He / she will also take part to the larger, INCa-funded, SouthRock consortium for pediatric cancers research between Lyon and Marseille.This post will BE co-supervised by S. Benzekry and E. Ventre.
Mission confiée
Objective
To develop mechanistic mathematical models from patient-derived organoid data in order to propose novel drug combinations and scheduling regimen tackling intra-tumor resistance to treatment in pediatric rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS).
Data
From patients biopsies at diagnosis and relapse
- Molecular :
- DNAseq 500X
- bulk RNAseq
- MethylEpic
- scRNA-seq
- Histological images
Same from patient-derived RMS-organoids (RMS-O), both untreated and treated with multiple drugs and combinations, in addition to markers of differentiation, viability assays and qRT-PCR. in 3 genetically engineered RMS-O.
Part of the data has already been published in [1] and the other has been generated since the start of the project in 2023.
Methods
The mathematical and computational tools will BE developed departing from existing methods :
- The software for molecular data [2]
- Mixed-effects pharmacokinetics / pharmacodynamics modeling of tumor response / resistance [3]
