Postdoctoral or PhD position in Intestinal Lipidomics : Dresden, Germany


The Max Planck Institute of Molecular Cell Biology and Genetics (MPI-CBG) and the Center for Regenerative Therapies Dresden (CRTD) invite applications for a position as
Postdoctoral fellow or PhD student in Intestinal Lipidomics
The project is funded by the European Research Council (ERC Starting Grant) and aims at the characterization of lipids and lipid antigens involved in the crosstalk between metabolism, immunity, and cancer in the intestine.
We are looking for candidates interested in applying lipidomics approaches to the study of lipids in the context of intestinal inflammation and cancer. The proposed study is a joint project between the groups of Dr. Andrej Shevchenko at the Max Planck Institute of Molecular Cell Biology and Genetics (www.mpi-cbg.de/research/research-groups/andrej-shevchenko) and Dr. Sebastian Zeissig at the Center for Regenerative Therapies Dresden (www.crt-dresden.de/research/crtd-core-groups/zeissig). The position offers an excellent opportunity to join a group of enthusiastic researchers in a cross-disciplinary environment. Moreover, the CRTD (www.crt-dresden.de) and the MPI-CBG (http://www.mpi-cbg.de) provide outstanding facilities for the proposed studies including a state-of-the art lipidomics facility.
We seek candidates with expertise in analytical chemistry of lipids and, in case of postdocs, expertise in lipidomics. Funding is available for 3 years. Salary is according to E13 (100% for postdocs, 65% for PhD students).
Please send your application by September 15th 2015 by e-mail as a single PDF to: sebastian.zeissig@crt-dresden.de and shevchenko@mpi-cbg.de.
