Postdoc Research Position University of Cologne Germany
September 16, 2008
Postdoc Research Position
A Postdoc position (TV-L E13) is available at the Institute for Neurophysiology (Group Prof. Dr. Jürgen Heschler ), for at least two years.
Project ” Functional characterization of rhesus ES cell-derived cardiomyocytes”
Description of Project
In collaboration with Prof. Ulrich Martin at the University of Hannover, we are investigating the ability of rhesus ES cells to differentiate into cardiomyocytes. The purpose of the present research is to optimise the differentiation of rhesus ES cells into cardiomyocytes and to characterize (structure and function) the resulting cardiomyocytes.
Required qualifications:
Experiments will be done using electrophysiological (MEA system, patch-clamp), as well as molecular biology (e.g. PCR, Western blotting) and imaging techniques. Further, cell culture work and cardiac differentiation will be routinely performed. The successful applicant should hold a Doctorate degree or an equivalent in Natural Sciences. Very good communication skills in English and good MS-Office skills are prerequisites. We expect high motivation and creativity. Knowledge in molecular biology techniques and cell culture work would be an advantage.
The University of Cologne is an equal opportunity employer and welcomes applications from all qualified individuals.
Please forward your CV and referees with the application letter in mail or e-mail to:
Prof. Dr. J. Hescheler
Institut für Neurophysiologie
Robert-Koch-Str. 39
D-50931 Köln

Its kind of you if I join your university .
Thank you, God bless you
Best regards
Respected Sir/Madam
greetings
I am Dr.M.Pandiyan, PhD., working as Associate
Professor Plant Breeding and Genetics. Tamil Nadu
Agricultural University, National Pulses Research
Centre, Vamban. Tamil Nadu. India
I developed interspecific derivative line which is immune to yellow mosaic
virus resistance confirmed with SSR primers and agro infection test
In India, Legume crops are second major crop next to
paddy and wheat particularly greengram Vigna
radiata(mungbean)and blackgram Vigna mungo
(urdbean)are main pulse crops. Now in these crop
highly affected by YELLOW MOSAIC VIRUS disease. we
have resistant varieties in blackgram. In case of
greengram at present there is no resistant variety in
india . I kept in mind that problems, for eradication
of this serious disease i studied well of Vigna wild
species. i found one species that is Vigna umbellata
has 100 per cent resistant at field condition
thoughout the year for eight years of my observation
and agro infection test also it found resistant against yellow mosaic virus.
I used this wild species to
improve greengram (gene transfer methodology through
conventional breeding) I have developed mapping
population in this crop. i have 187 lines as
population for Yellow mosaic virus disease (Vigna
radiata x Vigna umbellata). out of 187 lines, 3 lines
showed complete yellow mosaic virus resistant
particularly one line very good yield potential with
high level of ymv resistant like male parent. the
phenotype of this plant is female and pods characters
are male.
Now i checked and confirmed polymorphism of this resistant line by adzuki
bean markers at NATIONAL INSTITUTE OF AGROBIOLOGICAL SCIENCE, GENE BANK
LABORATORY,TSUKUBA, JAPAN. by MAS method
I need to analysis remaining 186 lines and i tag the resistant genes and i
also construct map.
If I get post doctorial fellowship i will do it further which will be
usefull to all mungbean breeders where this yellow mosaic
problem is found. if i get permission from you i bring the materials and
test it there and share it. Apart from this cross combination i am being
conventional breeder now i am involving molecular breeding
I have developed greengram x silvestris, Greengram x
glabresense, greengram x trilobata and blackgrams x
silvestris for ymv disease resistant population.
kindly give ur valuable suggestion
I am also involving depatment of biotechnology ,India
project on development of mungbean yellow mosaic
virus resistant gene analoge and mapping population
If i get chance definitely i will do better my level
best
if i get green signal i will send my full biodata. no .of paper published 35 recent publication within five years is 20
thank you
