MSc positions at Univ Medical Center Ulm

The Department of Internal Medicine III (Hematology, Oncology, Rheumatology, and Infectious Diseases) at the University Medical Center Ulm offers a highly interactive and collaborative scientific environment with a strong focus on translational oncology research.

Ph.D. studentship (MSc) positions are available in the laboratories of Lars Bullinger (http://www.uniklinik-ulm.de/index.php?id=10705), Florian Kuchenbauer (http://www.uniklinik-ulm.de/news/article/1119/ulmer-leukae.html) and Daniel Mertens (http://www.mertens-lab.de). The positions are  limited to 2 years and can be filled immediately. A subsequent extension of employment is possible.

Research foci are:

• Several challenging projects focusing on the role of epigenetics or miRNAs in leukemogenesis, interaction of leukemic cells with their microenvironment, and "omics" and next-generation sequencing based molecular characterization of leukemia:

Lars Bullinger: genomic and epigenomic profiling in acute myeloid leukemias
Florian Kuchenbauer: non-coding RNAs in normal and aberrant hematopoeisis
Daniel Mertens: epigenetics, microenvironment and miRNAs in leukemogenesis

• For project details please see the websites or contact the supervisors directly (see below).

Your personal profile:

• We are looking for a highly motivated, team-minded candidate with a strong interest in science. You will join an international research group working on the molecular mechanisms that cause leukemias and lymphomas.
• Applicants should hold a degree in biology, biochemistry, genetics, or a related field and have excellent laboratory and analytical skills.
• Experiences in molecular biology of cancer, epigenetics, ncRNA or systems biology are a plus.

We offer:

• Payment based on TV-L
• Multifaceted and challenging tasks
• Working environment in an international team
• Compatibility of career and family

Full applications can be send via the online-application-portal of the University Medical Center Ulm (www.uniklinik-ulm.de/stellenangebote, currently the portal is only in German available) or via e-mail to the following address: service.recruiting@uniklinik-ulm.de.
Please mention the reference code 100326 in your application.

In general, full-time positions are divisible.
Handicapped people, especially handicapped women, with equal qualifications will be employed and trained preferentially.
Employment takes place through the administration department of the University Medical Center Ulm in the name and on behalf of the federal state of Baden-Württemberg.
 

PhD position in molecular biology at Medical Univ of Vienna

A PhD position is available immediately at the Medical University of Vienna. The project, funded by the Austrian Science Fund, studies structure and function of the human ABC-transporter P-glycoprotein (ABCB1) as a paradigm for ABC-exporter function (for further information see: www.fwf.ac.at, grant P23319). ABCB1 is a major determinant of the response of human disease to systemic pharmacotherapy. The project aims at developing a model of P-glycoprotein transport function at atomic resolution.

Applicants must hold a master degree with a strong background in molecular biology. We are looking for highly motivated candidates of all nationalities who have a keen interest in our research topic. Our project is conducted in the multidisciplinary environment of a research cluster with a focus on membrane transporters. In order to take advantage of this environment we expect and encourage an explorative attitude and good communication skills, especially in English. Applicants should be familiar with standard molecular biology techniques (site directed mutagenesis, cloning techniques, expression systems). A background in computational biology is preferred. The position will receive funding from FWF for a period of three years.

The Institutes of Pharmacology and Medical Chemistry are located in vicinity of the historic center of Vienna and the teaching hospital of the Medical University of Vienna.

Applications containing a cover letter explaining relevant work experience, CV, copies of certificates and contact details of two references should be sent to: thomas.stockner@meduniwien.ac.at; peter.chiba@meduniwien.ac.at
