The Institute of Molecular Biology (IMB) is a Centre of Excellence for Life Sciences, funded by the Boehringer Ingelheim Foundation, and located in Mainz, Germany. Applications are invited for a postdoctoral researcher position in the laboratory of Dr. Vijay Tiwari (www.imb-mainz.de/research-at-imb/tiwari).The successful applicant will contribute to internationally competitive research on Epigenetic Regulation of cell-fate specification during development.
The group employs high-throughput epigenomics assays such as ChIP-seq and RNA-seq in combination with developmental biology and cutting-edge epigenetics and molecular biology tools. The resulting datasets are analysed using computational and systems biology approaches to generate a comprehensive model of chromatin-mediated transcriptional control during cellular differentiation.
You will
• Study epigenetic regulatory mechanisms that regulate cell-type specification during embryonic development
• Analyse epigenomics datasets for solving complex biological questions as well as develop novel analytical tools and algorithms for improved data analysis
• Obtain training in epigenomics, computational biology, developmental biology and gene regulation
• Have access to all IMB Core Facilities
• Collaborate with internal and external partners
• Work in close cooperation with a team of experimental and computational researchers to facilitate novel discoveries
Required qualifications
• PhD in Bioinformatics or Computational Biology or Systems Biology or related areas
• At least one first author paper in an international peer reviewed journal
• Experience in analyzing high throughput genomics datasets such as ChIP-seq and RNA-seq
• Programming skills in one of the following languages: Perl, C/C++, SBML, Fortran or Shell scripting
• Experience with analytic tools such as R, SAS, SPLUS Matlab, Cytoscape and Copasi will be a plus
• Motivation to solve complex biological problems especially in the field of epigenomics and experience in productively working in an interdisciplinary environment
• Excellent written and spoken English
We offer
• The possibility to work on cutting-edge projects using state-of-the-art technology
• A stimulating, diverse and international research environment
• Advanced training opportunities
• Career development
• Highly motivated research team
