Die FAU Erlangen-Nürnberg sucht für den Lehrstuhl für Entwicklungsbiologie, Prof. Dr. Elke Ober, zum nächstmöglichen Zeitpunkt eine/einen

Ihre Aufgaben

The Liver Development and Regeneration group of Professor Elke Ober in the division of developmental biology at the Friedrich-Alexander Universität (FAU) Erlangen-Nürnberg is seeking a highly motivated and skilled candidate for a PhD studentship. The project will use advanced imaging and state-of-the-art molecular biology approaches examining cell communication and interactions mediated by novel ECM candidates in hepatocyte polarity and cell-cell interactions leading to hepatocyte-biliary tube formation driving functional tissue organization in liver development and regeneration.

Ihr Profil

Notwendige Qualifikationen:

  • MSc degree in the life sciences (e.g. Molecular Biology, Cell biology, Biomedicine, Biochemistry) or related fields
  • Experience with molecular biology
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills for interactions with an international and diverse team.

Stellenzusatz

Befristetes Forschungsvorhaben

The Ober group seeks to decipher the molecular and cellular interactions of the different hepatic cell types and their functional niches that direct hepatocytes and the endothelial and biliary networks into the intricate tissue organization of a functional liver and how this architecture is restored during regeneration. They use zebrafish genetics, various cell and molecular biology techniques and advanced imaging methods combined with quantitative analysis. This will set the stage for generating 3D cell environments towards engineering hepatic cells for regenerative medicine.

The Ober group is an interactive and dynamic team at the Division of Developmental Biology at Friedrich-Alexander University (FAU) Erlangen-Nürnberg, Germany. FAU and surrounding institutes provide an outstanding research environment for development, cell biology and regeneration with all facilities essential for this ambitious research program.

Salary will be according to TV-L E13, 50-65% depending on experience.

For informal inquiries, please contact Elke Ober (). Applications from underrepresented minorities are particularly welcome. Your application (in English or German) must include a motivation letter, your CV, your university diploma and transcripts and the names of two referees. The application should be sent as a single merged PDF to () Applications will be accepted until the position is filled.
