Klinikum rechts der Isar der Technischen Universität München (TUM)
Postdoctoral Fellowship (m/f/d) – Cell Biology/Immunology
Full- or part-time | temporary contract (36 months) |
Your responsibilities:
Integrin-mediated adhesion and signaling is crucial for multicellular organisms and must be tightly controlled as its misregulation or malfunction can lead to severe disease. Integrin activity is regulated at multiple levels, including a change in ligand affinity and spatial organization. In our project, we are investigating the molecular mechanisms controlling integrin function in hematopoietic cells by combining biochemical and cell biological approaches with in vivo studies in self-made mouse models.
1. Experience in functional characterization of immune cells by flow cytometry/cell sorting
2. Knowledge of basic biochemical assays to characterize protein interactions
3. Experience in animal experimental research (mouse)
4. Interest in bioinformatics to analyze omics datasets
5. Very good English language skills
Your profile:
6. PhD (or equivalent degree) in Biology, Cell Biology, Biochemistry, Immunology, Molecular Medicine
7. Experience in functional characterization of immune cells by flow cytometry/cell sorting
8. Knowledge of basic biochemical assays to characterize protein interactions
9. Experience in animal experimental research (mouse)
10. Interest in bioinformatics to analyze omics datasets
11. Very good English language skills
We offer you:
12. Successful and well-equipped laboratory with world-wide recognition in integrin biology
13. Our group is well connected to internationally renowned scientists
14. A varied and professionally demanding position
15. The opportunity to take part in internal and external professional development courses
16. Working in the heart of Munich at Max-Weber-Platz with very good accessibility by public transport such as underground, S-Bahn or tram
17. Employee discounts via various platforms with well-known companies and brands such as Adidas or AboutYou
