The Developmental Genetics Group (Prof. Christian Eckmann) at the MLU Halle-Wittenberg, Germany, invites applications for a PhD Student (m/f/d) Position in RNA Biology salary level according to TV-L 13, initially 50% (conditionally up to 65%). This open position has a three year term.
Our research primarily focuses on the dynamic decision-making processes that lead to cell fate specification and animal tissue development. Using preferentially the genetic model system, Caenorhabditis elegans, the group aims to discover the combinatorial gene expression mechanisms of post-transcriptional RNA regulation and protein turnover to drive cell fate decisions. The project deals with regulation of Bicaudal C RNA-binding protein family members and is of medical relevance to vertebrate development and physiology.
We are seeking a qualified (M.Sc. or equivalent), self-motivated, team-oriented lab member with strong communication skills and a genuine interest in RNA Biology of developmental and medical contexts. A solid background in developmental cell biology, molecular genetics, and biochemistry will be required. Experience in C. elegans genetics and genome engineering is not mandatory but helpful. Applications from candidates experienced in insect/ mammalian cell culture systems are encouraged. Further details on requirements and key challenges can be found in the legally-binding text version in German:
