Einleitungstext
The research group of Dr. Leon Hosang at the IMSF is inviting applications for a
Technical assistant (f/m/d) in cell biology, immunology, and molecular biology research.
About us
Our research group at the University Medical Center Göttingen (UMG) investigates the lung–brain axis, with a particular interest in how unique features of the lung shape both local and systemic immune responses, including immune regulation within the central nervous system. Our aim is to understand how these interactions contribute to the initiation, modulation, and resolution of autoimmune neuroinflammation. Funding for this position is provided by the “UMG2032 - Excellence through Focus” project funded by zukunft.niedersachsen, the joint science funding program of the Lower Saxony Ministry of Science and Culture and the Volkswagen Foundation.
