The VASC-OPATH project, funded by the French National Research Agency, aims to explore the pathomechanisms of vascular calcification in pediatric chronic kidney disease. The PhD student will engage in research involving single-nuclei RNA sequencing, 3D vascular organoid modeling, and CRISPR validation to uncover early cellular mechanisms and identify potential therapeutic targets. This interdisciplinary project combines vascular biology, immunology, and stem cell biology, addressing a critical gap in understanding CKD in children.
