Postdoctoral Position: Hematopoietic and Leukemic Stem Cell biology 1124 views

The Max Planck Institute of Immunobiology and Epigenetics is inviting applications for a postdoctoral position (m/f/d) in Hematopoietic and Leukemic Stem Cell Biology for an initial period of two years.

About the position:

• The position will be available in the research group of Dr. Nina Cabezas-Wallscheid.
• The group studies the mechanisms regulating hematopoietic and leukemic stem cell quiescence.
• The group is pursuing interdisciplinary projects which include the use of genetic models in combination with state-of-the-art population and single-cell OMICs analysis.
• The ultimate goal is to translate our findings into human disease settings.
• The lab is seeking talented and enthusiastic candidates who are interested in a dynamic, well-supported lab at a top research institution.
• The selected candidate will perform extensive functional experiments with primary human and murine hematopoietic and leukemic stem cells.
• The selected candidate will generate and analyse diverse OMICs data at the population and single-cell level.

Qualifications:

• Applicants should have an academic degree plus a PhD in hematopoietic stem cell and/or stem cells.
• Experience in bioinformatics would be a plus.
• A strong publication record will be appreciated.
• Good knowledge of English (oral and written), strong communication skills, high self-motivation and can work independently as well as in a collaborative environment are essential.

Applications:

Apply online including CV, a short statement of research background/interests and two reference letters.
