Tübingen Post-Doctoral fellow (f/m/d) Unternehmen: Universitätsklinikum Tübingen

The Department of Dermatology has 5 major research units funded by several million Euros annually. The main focus is on oncoimmunology and inflammation. Based on recent findings and resulting new projects, we would like to extend our research team with one postdoctoral fellow to address how immune responses silence cancer cells in in vitro and in vivo (mouse) models. One novel focus will be the interaction between the immune system and epigenetics. The data will additionally be transferred to the situation in humans. You will be integrated in our research team and will be involved in the generation and characterization of novel immunotherapies for cancer. The methods include a large spectrum of molecular and cellular assays, including flow cytometry, ELISA, and other cell-based assays. We expect enthusiastic and self-motivated scientists with strong interest in these fields. We are seeking a candidate with outstanding technical skills and a strong background in cell culture techniques, in vivo experiments and molecular biology. Knowledge and experience in epigenetics are an advantage.
Challenges and expectations:

Planning, execution and interpretation of cell-based assays and complex in vivo experiments
Characterization of functional activity (proliferation, cytokine, cytolysis, cell cycle)
Maintenance of a wide range of primary and immortalized tissue culture cell lines and of mouse lines
Performance of general laboratory tasks
Documentation of results and their presentation
High motivation and profound experience within the experimental field
A completed PhD in live science and profound English skills are required

We offer exciting research topics in a highly motivated environment. The focus is on high quality research, and is expected to pave the way for applicants to pursue a focused career. The applicants will be encouraged and supported to present their results and projects in national and international recognized congresses, publish their results in high impact journals, apply for their own subsequent grants, and thus qualify for a more advanced academic career.
We apply the collective agreement for the public service of the federal states (TV-L), severely disabled persons are given priority in case of equal suitability. Presentation costs can unfortunately not be covered. Please observe the applicable vaccination regulations. As the University of Tübingen aims to increase the proportion of women among its academic staff, women are strongly encouraged to apply. Employment is based on the relevant provisions of university law.
