Postdoc (f/m/d) | Molecular and Computational Analyses of 3D Genome Regulation

 The Max Planck Institute for Multidisciplinary Sciences in Göttingen is a leading international research institute of exceptional scientific breadth. With more than 40 research groups and some 1,000 employees from over 50 nations, it is the largest institute of the Max Planck Society.

The Genome organization and regulation research group (Marieke Oudelaar) invites applications for a position as Postdoc (f/m/d) in molecular and computational analyses of 3D genome regulation.

About us

Our team is interested in the interplay between the 3D organization of the genome in the nucleus and the regulation of gene expression. Our research aims to define the 3D structures into which the genome is organized in detail; to identify the mechanisms by which these structures form; and to decipher how gene expression is regulated in this 3D environment. To this end, we use a combination of approaches based on genomics, microscopy, and computational analyses across a range of different model systems. Our lab offers an international, multidisciplinary, and collaborative working environment. The historic city of Göttingen, located in the centre of Germany, offers great outdoor and cultural opportunities, a vibrant student scene, and an impressive scientific heritage.

About the position

We are looking for talented and motivated postdoctoral researchers with a strong interest in genome organization and regulation. The position is funded by a prestigious ERC Starting grant (3D-REG “Shedding light on three-dimensional gene regulation”) that was recently awarded to Marieke Oudelaar. The project will involve a combination of approaches based on molecular and computational biology and will be tailored to the specific interests of the successful candidate.

Your profile

  • You have a PhD or equivalent degree in a relevant subject area, such as biochemistry, molecular biology, or computational biology.
  • Experience and a proven track record in a related research field (involving e.g. chromatin, epigenetics, transcription, or gene regulation) are an advantage, but not required.
  • You are curiosity-driven and passionate about science.
  • You are self-motivated, independent, and enjoy working in an international, multidisciplinary, and collaborative working environment.
  • German language skills are not required, since the working language in our team is English.

We offer

  • A world-class research environment with state-of-the-art equipment and infrastructure.
  • Interesting and varied work in a supportive and friendly environment.
  • Professional training, networking, and career-development opportunities, as well as free language courses.
  • On-site health management: free fitness and yoga room, sports groups, beach volleyball league, and courses for a "moving lunch break”.
  • A wide range of opportunities to balance work and family life, including an on-campus kindergarten and vacation care.
  • Spacious cafeteria with a wide range of meals.
  • Initiatives for sustainability and a green environment with an on-site biotope.

Position details

We would like to fill the position as soon as possible, but the exact start date is flexible. The payment and benefits are based on the TVöD (wage agreement for public service personnel) guidelines. Positions are initially limited to two years with a possibility of extension. The Max Planck Society is committed to increasing the number of individuals with disabilities in its workforce and therefore encourages applications from such qualified individuals. The Max Planck Society strives for gender and diversity equality. We welcome applications from all backgrounds.

Application procedure

Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis until the position is filled. Please submit your application including a cover letter (explaining background and motivation), CV, transcripts, and publication records by e-mail as a single PDF file to:

Postdoctoral Position (m/f/d) | Biological Physics MPRG Zwicker

 The Max Planck Institute for Dynamics and Self-Organization is an international research institute in Göttingen, Germany. It performs both experimental and theoretical fundamental scientific research and currently employs about 300 people.

For the independent research group “Theory of Biological Fluids” headed by Dr. David Zwicker we seek to fill a Postdoctoral Position (m/f/d) in Biological Physics.

The research

The research group aims to understand how biological organisms organize soft and fluid-like material. They currently focus on the organization principles of liquid droplets in biological cells, but they are also interested in broader questions in biological physics. They generally combine analytical insight from simple systems with more detailed numerical simulations to unveil biological design principles. Additionally, they build tailored models to interpret experimental data of collaborators.

Your profile

We are looking for excellent, enthusiastic, and self-motivated researchers with good communication skills to join our research team. The postdoctoral researcher should have a Ph.D. in theoretical physics, applied mathematics, or a related field as well as an interest in biological and soft matter physics.

Expertise in studying pattern formation, elasticity theory, statistical physics, or biological physics is a plus. Programming skills are highly desirable. Fluency in both written and spoken English is required. The researcher should show eagerness to learn new skills and apply established ones.

Our offer

We are offering excellent working conditions in a highly international and interdisciplinary research environment. The postdoctoral position is for two years initially with the possibility of extensions. Salary and working hours follow the funding guidelines of the Max Planck Society for scientists: Working hours are fulltime; salary is E13 TVöD-Bund. Furthermore, we offer opportunities regarding work-life balance as well as health promotion services. The starting date is flexible.

 

The Max-Planck Society is committed to increasing the number of individuals with disabilities in its workforce and therefore encourages applications from such qualified individuals. Furthermore, the Max Planck Society seeks to increase the number of women in those areas where they are underrepresented and therefore explicitly encourages women to apply.

Your application

Please apply online and submit a cover letter, a CV, a list of publications, and contacts of three referees. Your cover letter should briefly describe your research interests, what excites you, and why you want to join our group. Applications received before 1st of May 2024 will be given full consideration. Written applications will not be sent back.

Please contact: Dr. David Zwicker,  should you have further questions.
