PhD (m/f/d) in Metabolic Imaging of Muscle Metabolism at TUM
Aufgaben:
37 Fachrichtungen 1834 gegründet 6.600 Mitarbeitende 160 Berufe Im Herzen Münchens PhD (m/f/d) in Metabolic Imaging of Muscle Metabolism at TUM part-time | temporary contract (48 month) | Department of Nuclear Medicine The Department of Nuclear Medicine at the Technical University of Munich (TUM) is seeking applications from highly motivated candidates for a PhD position in metabolic imaging. The PhD position supervised by Prof. Dr. Franz Schilling ( The imaging infrastructure located at the Department of Nuclear Medicine ( and the Center for Translational Cancer Research (TranslaTUM, provide state-of-the-art imaging instrumentation and consists of a group of scientists working on applications and specific improvements of multimodal imaging. The position is embedded in the DFG research unit HyperMet enabling cutting edge multi-disciplinary research. The aim of this project is to elucidate the underlying metabolic mechanisms of muscle metabolism using advanced methods of metabolic research. In our project we combine transgenic muscle hypertrophy mice models with advanced metabolic imaging techniques. Your responsibilities: Establish imaging biomarkers in a preclinical setting based on magnetic resonance imaging and positron emission tomography to enable a comprehensive characterization of tissue providing functional, physiological, metabolic, cellular and molecular information beyond anatomical structures Implementation and optimization of deuterium and hyperpolarized 13C metabolic MRI for muscle research [18F]FDG-PET small animal imaging Imaging protocol development, image processing, image analysis Presentation and publication of scientific results Lay out imaging strategies for early-stage detection, tumor phenotyping and evaluation of response to therapy Your profile: Excellent M.Sc. or equivalent degree in physics, chemistry, biomedical engineering or other related subjects Previous experience in biomedical imaging is an advantage Team spirit, capability of independent self-motivated study Very good English and communication skills are a prerequisite Experience in basic chemistry, good computer skills and proficiency in at least one programming language (e.g. Python, MATLAB) are required We offer you: Well-equipped, state-of-the-art research environment within the Klinikum rechts der Isar Membership in TUM Graduate School (mandatory) You will join the TUM Graduate School, which offers excellent opportunities for career development, continued education, and life-long learning EGYM well pass, corporate benefits and discounts (e.g. Käfer), cafeteria, sports and cultural offers, company bike Free use of the library through a branch of the Munich City Library located in the building Working in the heart of Munich at Max-Weber-Platz with very good accessibility by public transport such as the subway, S-Bahn or tram Company pension plan through the Federal and State Pension Institute (VBL) Self-realization through a varied and technically demanding job with interdisciplinary cooperation between various departments of the MRI We look forward to your application!
