PhD and Postdoc Positions in cell biology, Neurobiology
and informatics (f/m/d)
(Ref. 26/2022)
We have several open positions for PhD students and postdoctoral researchers. Our group focuses on using multi-disciplinary approaches that combines proteomics, cross-linking mass spectrometry, molecular biology, structural biology, high-resolution imaging and bioinformatics to study the organizational aspects of protein assemblies and their functions in the cell. For the announced positions, we are seeking for biochemists or biologists who will study the proteome, the interactome as well as the structure and function of cellular organelles or synapses. We also look for an informatician to develop new informatics tools for cross-linking mass spectrometry and interactomic data analysis. We provide an international, innovative and interdisciplinary work environment, with access to state-of-the-art mass spectrometry platform as well as many other infrastructures within the institute and on campus Berlin-Buch. For further information about the lab please visit the website https://www.theliulab.com/. The PhD positions are limited for 3 years and the postdoc positions for 2 years with the possibility of extension.
