Munich, Deutschland Max-Planck-Institut für Psychiatrie Vollzeit

The Max Planck Institute of Psychiatry, Munich, Germany is one of the leading research institutes worldwide working on the neurobiology of psychiatric disorders based on a truly translational approach, combining clinical and basic research. The main goal of the Max Planck Institute of Psychiatry is to uphold a uniquely close interaction between basic science, clinical research and clinical services in order to gain knowledge about and understanding of the causes of psychiatric disorders. This knowledge can then be applied in the development of novel diagnostic possibilities as well as therapeutic and preventive approaches.

- We follow a strategy in which we first identify consequences of gene-environment interplay and then map these signatures to systemic and behavioral changes that associate with risk or resilience to psychiatric symptoms following exposure to adverse life events. We combine a highly interdisciplinary, integrative biology approach that utilizes human pluripotent stem cell-based 2D and 3D neural differentiation paradigms, patient specific iPSCs, functional (epi-)-genomic approaches (single cell RNA-Seq, ChIP-Seq, STARRseq, spatial deep sequencing) and genome and epigenome editing as well as computational modelling strategies.**Our requirements**
