Job description:The Max Delbrück Center for Molecular Medicine (MDC) in the Helmholtz Association is an international biomedical research center dedicated to understanding the molecular mechanisms of health and disease with the goal to devise new diagnostics and medicines. The MDC is a member of the Helmholtz Association, Germany's largest scientific organization, and offers an engaging research environment with cutting-edge research infrastructure. Currently, ~1250 employees and ~500 guest scientists work at the Berlin-Buch and Berlin-Mitte campuses. Our diverse workforce is a core strength that inspires creativity and innovation at the MDC.
The MDC is committed to improving human health through transformative biomedical research. Our goal is to pioneer discoveries for preventing, treating, and ultimately curing disease.
The Max Delbrück Center is one of the world’s leading biomedical research institutions.
Our common goal is that we want to understand the molecular basis of health and disease and bring our discoveries to patients as quickly as possible - for better prevention, diagnostics and treatment.
The Mobile DNA Laboratory forms an effective bridge between basic research on the non-coding genome and transposable elements, also the technological implementation of state of art gene transfer and stem cell technologies for clinical application. The position will involve the use of cutting-edge, including high-throughput techniques in molecular and cell biology.
We are seeking an enthusiastic and motivated individual for a Post-Doctoral position (m/f/d) in the team of Dr. Zsuzsanna Izsvák, Head of the Mobile DNA Laboratory at the Max Delbrück Center for Molecular Medicine in the Helmholtz Association Society, Berlin, Germany.

There are currently three exciting research programs:
You will
- work independently and self-responsible on the planning, implementation, evaluation and further development of one of three scientific projects using high-throughput and state of the art methods
- analyse high-throughput data to understand the role of transposable elements in development, the role of their dysregulation and the consequences for gene expression using bioinformatics methods
- publish your findings in high-impact scientific journals
- present your findings at internal and external meetings and conferences
Requirements:
Candidates (m/f/d) need to hold a PhD in a relevant biological subject (preferably Biology) and have a solid background in Genetics, Biochemistry, Molecular and/or Cellular Biology, Biotechnology, Bioinformatics and/or demonstrated prior experience in the broader area of research of non-coding, transposable elements or artificial intelligence (A.I.), which is most welcome. If you have an excellent background in biological sciences and enjoy intellectual challenges, feel free to send in your application.
