Postdoctoral Researcher
Deutsches Krebsforschungszentrum
Description
Position: Postdoctoral Researcher
Department: Systems Biology of Signal Transduction
Code number: 2020-0341
The German Cancer Research Center is the largest biomedical research institution in Germany. With more than 3,000 employees, we operate an extensive scientific program in the field of cancer research.
Job description:
To unraveling mechanisms regulating the dynamics of BMP signal transduction and its impact on hepcidin expression with a systems biology approach, we are looking for a highly motivated postdoc. The candidate will develop a mass spectrometry-based pipeline for the quantitative analysis of plasma proteins to identify plasma factors and correlate these factors with the iron status. In collaboration with internal and external partners, he/she will develop a dynamic pathway model of BMP signal transduction in hepatocytes. To obtain absolute quantitative data for the calibration of the parameters of the mathematical model, the mass spectrometry approach will be extended to simultaneously target several cell surface receptors and cellular proteins. He/she will utilize the developed integrative model to uncover iron regulatory mechanisms that are altered in chronic liver disease.
Requirements:
The successful performance of this project requires a highly qualified and motivated researcher with a sound knowledge of biochemical techniques and mass spectrometry as well as an understanding of mathematical modeling and systems biology approaches. Given the collaborative and interdisciplinary aspects of this project, communication skills are key.
We offer:
Interesting, versatile workplace
International, attractive working environment
Campus with modern state-of-the-art infrastructure
Salary according to TV-L including social benefits
Possibility to work part-time
