Post-Doc/Technical Assistant Positions Leibniz Center for Medicine and Biosciences
Research Center Borstel
Leibniz Center for Medicine and Biosciences
In the Division of Cellular Allergology positions for a
Post-Doc
and a
Technical Assistant (MTA/BTA/CTA)
will be available from August 1st, 2008. The positions will be financed by the BMBF (Ministry of Education and Research) within the framework of the program “Alternative methods for animal experiments” and are limited to 3 years.
The Division of Cellular Allergology focuses on the identification and molecular characterization of immunmodulatory molecules from parasitic worms and the investigation of their potential use for the therapy and prophylaxis of allergies and autoimmune diseases.
The project
„In vitro culture of Schistosoma mansoni – culture dish instead of mammalian host”
aims at establishing the complete mammalian part of the life cycle of schistosomes in vitro. In parallel, the technique of cryopreservation of live schistosomes will be optimized along with establishment of a schistosome bank. This will allow the need-based access to infectious stages of the parasite and render continuous maintenance of the parasite life cycle in laboratory animals unnecessary. In vitro culture will provide a highly effective tool for parasitological and immunological studies that for example will allow potential drugs against schistosomes to be tested in high-throughput procedures. The project will both save animal lives and improve the cost efficiency ratio for schistosome research.
Applicants should be team workers with a high degree of commitment, creativity, independence and an ability to collaborate. Experiences in the maintenance of parasites and in vitro culture systems are prerequisites. Technical skills and computer knowledge will be an advantage. Candidates for the post-doctoral position should have a very good command of English and should be able to present scientific data in a transparent and competent manner.
