vor 1 Monat
ABOUT US
At the Max Planck Institute for Medical Research, one of the 84 institutes of the Max Planck Society for the Advancement of Science, physicists, chemists, and biologists create knowledge of long-term relevance to life and basic medical sciences. Currently, our around 270 employees are divided into four departments and one Max Planck Research Group. In addition, the institute is part of the Health + Life Science Alliance Heidelberg Mannheim – an association of the leading life science research institutions in the region.
The Department of Chemical Biology (Prof. Dr. Kai Johnsson) invites applications for (a)
Postdoctoral Position(s) for an Interdisciplinary Translational Research Project
to start at the earliest convenience.
YOUR TASKS
The project aims to exploit a conceptually new approach to develop therapeutic antibodies targeting high-value drug targets like G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) or ion channels. It centers on creating and validating cellular assays for functional screenings of antibody candidates, including establishing systems for higher throughput antibody production. Additional projects may involve further antibody characterization, including binding kinetics (ELISA, flow cytometry, BLI), thermostability (DSF), aggregation propensity (SEC), or hydrophobicity (HIC). This multidisciplinary project combines modern chemical biology, molecular biological approaches, biochemical techniques, and cell culture work.
YOUR QUALIFICATIONS
The ideal candidate should be deeply motivated to engage in cutting-edge research with significant translational potential and must thrive in a truly multidisciplinary environment. Prior experience with relevant techniques such as molecular biology, mammalian cell culture, and biochemical techniques are a prerequisite. The candidate should hold or anticipate completing a PhD in biochemistry, biotechnology, biology, chemistry, immunology, or a related field. Demonstrated willingness to tackle and master new challenges, confidence, ability to work both independently and within a team, meticulous attention to detail, and strong critical thinking skills are essential for success. The working language of the project group is English.
OUR OFFER
The Department of Chemical Biology is focused on developing approaches to observe and manipulate biological activities in live cells and in vivo. A list of recent publications can be found here.
