Postdoctoral Fellowship, Stem Cell Biology, Germany

August 19, 2008

Applications are invited for the position of a Postdoctoral Research Scientist to join the well-equipped Stem Cell Engineering Group at the Department of Reconstructive Neurobiology, University of Bonn. The research of the group focuses on cellular reprogramming and basic embryonic stem cell biology (Nolden et al., Nature Methods, 2006 Jun;3(6):461; Bosnali M, Edenhofer F., Biol Chem, 2008 Jul;389(7):851).

Research will involve analysis of molecular mechanisms underlying nuclear reprogramming of somatic cells to multi- or pluripotency at the molecular and cellular level. Novel genetic and biochemical technologies will be applied in order to functionally screen for factors which are involved in cellular reprogramming.

The successful applicant should have a PhD or MD/PhD with a strong background
in molecular and cell biology. Previous experience in at least one of the following areas is essential: cultivation of ES cells; transcriptional profiling; retro- or lentiviral transduction, hi-res subcellular imaging; recombinant protein expression.

Self-motivation, enthusiasm, and creativity is expected. She/he should be able to work largely independent and supervise a PhD student and/or technician. You will benefit from working in a stimulating interdisciplinary environment encompassing a wide spectrum of modern stem cell biology. We are providing excellent working and laboratory conditions in a newly established laboratory.

Applicants should send a CV, including a list of publications, the names and addresses of two academic referees as well as a summary of area of interests and future plans to:
PD Dr. Frank Edenhofer, Institute of Reconstructive Neurobiology, University of Bonn, Sigmund-Freud-Strasse 25, 53105 Bonn
***email-applications are preferred: f.edenhofer@uni-bonn.de.
