Group Leader Position in Plant Chromosome Biology
The Max Planck Institute for Plant Breeding Research (MPIZ) in Cologne has an opening for a 5-year group leader position in the field of plant genetics. The institute is a major site in Europe committed to basic research in plant science. The working language is English.
The department of Chromosome Biology, headed by Raphael Mercier, opened in 2019. Four teams focus on diverse aspects of genome biology, with complementary aims and approach-es (Molecular Mechanisms of Meiosis, Evolution of Meiosis, Polyploidy & Adaption, and Genome Plasticity & Computa-tional Genetics - ). The Department of Chromosome Biology is seeking a group leader to set up a team with complementary interests. The ideal applicant would have an outstanding track record in related fields and at least 2 years postdoctoral experience. She/he would have demonstrated an ability to pursue an in-novative and internationally competitive research program. Applications are invited from individuals interested in topics related to chromosome biology in the broadest sense. The main criteria are the excellence of the program and comple-mentarity with the other teams.
The group of the successful applicant is expected to be initi-ated in 2025 and will be supported by a technician, a postdoc, a student and running costs from the Institute’s core budget. She/He is also expected to attract external funding. The group will benefit from a stimulating environment and an excellent infrastructure including large plant growth facilities, in-house sequencing and computational facilities, phenotyping robot, confocal and super-resolution microscopes. The salary will be according to German civil service conditions (TVöD Bund) and includes social security benefits.
The Max Planck Society is one of the leading research organizations in Europe. We offer challenging tasks with a high degree of personal responsibility and creative freedom in research laboratories, workshops, libraries and administration.
The Max Planck Institute for Plant Breeding Research conducts basic research on plants and their development using a wide variety of methods, in particular molecular genetics, genomics, imaging processes, computational biology and biochemistry. Our goal is the deep and detailed understanding of fundamental mechanisms in plant biology, which may also then be used to develop innovative strategies for plant breeding.
The Max Planck Society strives to increase employment of severely disabled people. Applications from severely disabled people are expressly encouraged.
Furthermore, the Max Planck Society wants to increase the proportion of women in areas where they are underrepresented. Women are therefore expressly encouraged to apply.
The Little Pumpkins Parents' Association offers childcare for children under the age of 3 at the MPIPZ.
