PhD Research Position in Neurobiology

vor 3 Monaten


Würzburg, Bayern, Deutschland Universitätsklinikum Würzburg Vollzeit

PhD Research Position (m/f/d)

Focus: Neurobiology Employment Type: Full-time Contract: Temporary with potential for extension

Application Deadline: To be announced

The Institute for Clinical Neurobiology at the University Hospital Würzburg is seeking a dedicated individual for a research role.

We Offer:

Engaging research initiatives with a strong emphasis on interdisciplinary collaboration An international research atmosphere A contract duration of 3 years, with remuneration in accordance with salary group E13 as per the relevant collective agreements Access to occupational pension schemes Company Sports Programs: Complimentary gym facilities available On-site Childcare Services with extended hours Comprehensive training and personalized development opportunities A supportive working environment within a highly motivated and collaborative team

Your Responsibilities:

The research will focus on the hexanucleotide repeat expansions in the C9ORF72 gene, recognized as the leading genetic factor in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal dementia (FTD). The pathological mechanisms associated with C9ORF72-related ALS/FTD involve both loss and toxic gain of functions. Despite growing evidence regarding loss of function mechanisms, the cellular and physiological roles of C9ORF72 and their significance in ALS pathogenesis remain inadequately explored. Our analysis of C9ORF72 proteomics in motoneurons, along with co-immunoprecipitation experiments, has indicated a notable interaction between C9ORF72 and ribosomes. These interactions are crucial for the translation elongation phase, as targeting C9ORF72 through shRNA significantly diminished translation capacity in cultured motoneurons, particularly in axonal regions. This research initiative aims to elucidate how C9ORF72's interaction with ribosomes influences translation in motor axons and to characterize the pathological implications of this interaction on axonal and synaptic degeneration in ALS.

The prospective PhD candidate will investigate the role of C9ORF72 in regulating translation elongation in both wildtype mouse and human motoneurons, focusing on axonal and presynaptic compartments. The candidate will also explore whether the loss of this function correlates with pathomechanisms that lead to reduced translation capacity in axons in ALS models. The project will involve working with primary motoneurons from mice and human-induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC)-derived motoneurons from ALS patients with C9ORF72 repeat expansions, utilizing super-resolution microscopy and biochemical assays. These investigations will provide valuable insights into the loss of function mechanisms relevant to ALS axonopathy and neurodegeneration.

Your Profile:

We welcome applications from candidates with a strong passion for cellular and molecular neurobiology. Practical experience in protein biochemistry, human stem cell cultures, or super-resolution microscopy, along with substantial exposure to neuroscience research during master's education, is highly regarded.

Essential qualifications include:

A master's degree (or equivalent) in Neuroscience, Molecular Biology, Biochemistry, Biotechnology, or Biophysics A keen interest in cutting-edge experimental research in molecular neurobiology and super-resolution microscopy A desire to engage in teaching and mentoring students Proficiency in English (both spoken and written) Two recommendation letters

What We Offer:

Training and Continuing Education Opportunities Retirement Pension Plan Flexible Working Hours A Culture of Collegiality Sports and Fitness Options Employee Events Corporate Benefits

Join Our Team:

We are committed to fostering a diverse and inclusive environment that promotes respect and support among all team members. The University Hospital of Würzburg provides an innovative and exceptional working environment in advanced medicine, where employees benefit from state-of-the-art technology, extensive training, and career development opportunities, as well as flexible working time models to ensure a healthy work-life balance.
