奥地利CEMM研究中心招收医学博士后

The DNA repair and genomic stability laboratory of Dr. Joanna Loizou at CeMM – the Research Centre for Molecular Medicine of the Austrian Academy of Sciences – requires a highly motivated, efficient and hard-working postdoctoral fellow. The focus of the group is to understand how DNA damage is signaled and repaired (Loizou et al, Cancer Cell 2011; Loizou et al J Immunol 2009; Murr* & Loizou* et al Nat Cell Biol 2006). The applicant will be expected to lead a project focusing on the DNA damage response to replicative stress.

Description: The DNA damage response signals and repairs DNA damage to maintain the fidelity of the genome. Programmed DNA breaks that occur during somatic recombination in B and T cells also represent an important source of DNA damage. The lab is interested in understanding how DNA breaks are resolved, to generate functional B and T cells, and to suppress tumourigenesis.

Requirements: Applicants should have obtained a PhD (acquired by the start date) in the relevant subject area and have knowledge of molecular and/or cellular biology. Previous experience in the field of DNA repair and peer reviewed first author publications are a major advantage for this position.

The Laboratory: Our laboratory is a fully equipped molecular biology laboratory in a shared environment with cell culture on the same floor within a brand new building. The group is embedded in a multidisciplinary and highly collaborative molecular medicine research environment that provides state-of-the-art mass-spectrometry, bioinformatics, automated biological screening platform and animal facilities, including BSL2 suites.

The Institute: CeMM is a flagship institute for biomedical research in the heart of Europe, Vienna. CeMM is committed to highest scientific standards as exemplified by recent publications in top journals including Nature, Cell and Nature Immunology as well as by its top international scientific advisory board. The environment is very dynamic, interactive and international. Working language is English. One of CeMM`s advantages is to be in close proximity to the Vienna Medical University Campus and the General Hospital (AKH). This allows the fruitful interaction of basic scientists with clinicians, and the use of models and cutting-edge technology to disease-relevant biological questions. According to a study by The Scientist, CeMM is ranked as the best European place to work in Academia 2012, internationally CeMM appears at the fourth place.

How to apply: Interested candidates should send their applications to Anita Ender, application@cemm.at using the reference code “PD Loizou”. Please include your CV, the contact details of your PhD supervisor and two additional referees as well as a detailed letter of motivation. The position will be fully funded according to the salary scale of the FWF – Austrian Science Fund.
