Neuroimmunology Research Associate

Vor 2 Tagen


Bonn, Deutschland Dzne Vollzeit

At the German Center for Neurodegenerative Diseases (DZNE), we are seeking a motivated and enthusiastic Neuroimmunology Research Associate to join our dynamic team.

About the Position

This is an exceptional opportunity to contribute to cutting-edge research at the interface of neuroscience and immunology. As a member of the 'Translational Neuroimmunology' research group, you will be working under the supervision of Dr. Róisín McManus, exploring the complex relationships between immune signaling, metabolic changes, and microglial function in the context of Alzheimer's disease.

Using a combination of innovative laboratory techniques, including cell culture work, immune activation assays, and state-of-the-art lab equipment, your primary goal will be to unravel the innate immune pathways mediating neuroinflammatory changes caused by dietary factors.

About Our Work
  • We investigate how consumption of a western diet affects lipid metabolism, leading to microglia activation and subsequent neuroinflammation.
  • Our recent studies have shown that certain lipid changes can drive neuroinflammatory responses, contributing to Alzheimer's disease progression.
  • As part of this position, you will employ murine cell culture models, immune activation assays, and cutting-edge biochemical techniques to dissect these intricate mechanisms.
Your Profile

To be successful in this role, you should possess:

  • A MSc degree in Immunology, Neuroscience, Biology, or a related field.
  • Previous experience in experimental animal work, immunology, neuroscience, or cell metabolism research would be highly beneficial.
  • FELASA accreditation is a strong plus.
  • Hands-on experience with cell culture, biochemistry techniques, and familiarity with immunohistochemistry or flow cytometry.
  • Fluency in English for effective communication, writing, and presentation of scientific data.
  • A strong enthusiasm for innovation and exploration of new techniques.
  • The willingness to work in a diverse, interdisciplinary team of international scientists.
About Our Benefits

At DZNE, we value our employees and offer a range of benefits to support your professional development and well-being:

  • Innovation and internationality: A forward-looking infrastructure, modern laboratory and office equipment, software tools, and opportunities for international exchange.
  • Work-life balance: Flexible working hours, mobile working, 30 days' holiday, subsidized job/Germany ticket options, and more.
  • Family-conscious corporate culture: Support for work-life balance, parent-child offices, family services, and daycare cooperations.
  • Health promotion: Extensive company health programs, in cooperation with Sozialwerk.Bund.
  • Focus on development: Training programs tailored to your individual needs and annual HR-development meetings.
  • Remuneration and conditions according to TVöD-Bund: Including annual special payment, capital-forming benefits, and VBL supplementary pension scheme.

This is an excellent opportunity to join a dynamic team and contribute to groundbreaking research. If you are passionate about advancing our understanding of neuroimmunology and driven by a desire to innovate, please submit your application via our portal below.
