  • Applicants with additional experience in biochemistry and chemical biology (e.g. enzyme kinetics, cell culture, gels, blotting techniques) are also desired
  • Ability to clearly communicate ideas verbally and at the white-board
  • Very good knowledge in verbal and written English

Your application should include a CV with publication list, two references, a brief summary of your past research and a copy of your Master's (or most recent degree) grades.

We offer:

  • Interesting, versatile workplace
  • Excellent framework conditions: state-of-the-art equipment and opportunity for international networking at the highest level
  • Remuneration according to TV-L incl. occupational pension plan for the public service and capital-forming payments
