Join an interdisciplinary research team investigating the molecular mechanisms of human brain development using cutting-edge genomics and computational biology approaches. Embedded within Heidelberg’s outstanding computational biology ecosystem, you will work at the interface of bioinformatics, neurodevelopment and gene regulation while collaborating closely with leading experts in systems biology and genomics. The position offers excellent opportunities for scientific publishing, international networking and academic career development.
Our group studies the fundamental principles of embryonic neuronal development by combining genomics, gene editing, and bioinformatics. We offer an international, dynamic, and supportive research environment that fosters creativity and career growth. The AG Laugsch is embedded within Heidelberg’s excellent computational biology network, fostering close collaborations with experts like Carl Herrmann (Institute of Pharmacy and Molecular Biotechnology), and Julio Saez-Rodriguez (Systems Biomedicine, Institute of Computational Biomedicine. If you are a curiosity-driven researcher who enjoys interdisciplinary teamwork and tackling complex biological questions through data, we would be delighted to hear from you. The application must include your motivation, a brief statement of your scientific interests, contact details from three references, curriculum vitae, separated publication list, and relevant certificates.
