The Neurodevelopmental Epigenetics group of Prof. T. Vogel at the University of Freiburg investigates mechanisms of transcriptional control during stem cell and neuronal specification in brain development, and in CNS disease (Gather et al, NAR 2025; Akol et al, PNAS, 2023; Appiah et al, Embo Rep, 2023; Ferrari et al, Nat Comm, 2020; Franz et al, NAR, 2019).
The group studies epigenetic mechanisms and transcription factor functions in mice and humans, applying state-of-the-art methodology including single-cell sequencing approaches, bioinformatics, CRISPR/Cas9 in iPSCs and human brain organoids. We are an ambitious group with thorough supervision and diverse opportunities for advanced training, learning and networking.

For a DFG funded project to investigate the function of MLLT3 in interneuron development, we are looking for a postdoctoral researcher.
