We are offering a

Postdoctoral Position in Bioinformatics

The Max Planck Institute of Immunobiology and Epigenetics in Freiburg, Germany is offering a Postdoctoral Position in Bioinformatics in the Laboratory of Chromatin Regulation (Head: Dr. Asifa Akhtar). The Position is available for an initial two-year appointment with the possibility of extension.

The MPI in Freiburg is an international research institute at the cross-road of Southern Germany, Switzerland and France. The working language is English. State-of-the-art infrastructure and service units, including transgenesis, mass spectrometry, proteomics, flow cytometry, fly and imaging facilities are available.

Your tasks:
The research focus of the Akhtar laboratory includes mechanisms underlying chromatin and epigenetic regulation. We are particularly interested in X chromosomal regulation using flies and mouse models employing multi-disciplinary approaches such as genetics, biochemistry, functional genomics as well as cell biology and structural biology.

We are looking for enthusiastic, highly-motivated, science-driven and experienced postdoctoral fellows to join our team to unravel the molecular mechanisms that regulate gene expression.

Your qualifications:
Applicants should have a PhD or equivalent doctoral degree with at least 3 years of proven research experience in bioinformatics and analyses of genomewide data (ChIPseq, RNA seq). Prior experience in working with Drosophila or mammalian models is highly encouraged. Candidates must have a strong publication record. Furthermore, the ability to work in a team, communication skills and experience in the supervision of graduate students are an asset.

Please submit your application, including a statement of research interests, and a CV to our homepage http://www.ie-freiburg.mpg.de/jobs.

Please also ask three referees to send recommendation letters directly to schmidl@ie-freiburg.mpg.de.

We offer:
Salaries will be according to postdoctoral fellowships of the Max Planck Society or TVöD and will commensurate with experience.

Application deadline: 15.01.2014

Our Institute investigates the molecular basis of the immune response and other topics of the developmental biology, such as the origin and differentiation of the immune cells as well as the development of vertebrate embryos. Another main focus of the Institute is Epigenetic. This area deals with inheritable traits, which are not caused by changes in the DNA sequence.

Handicapped applicants with equal qualifications will be given preferential treatment. The Max Planck Society seeks to increase the number of women in areas, where they are underrepresented, and therefore explicitly encourages women to apply. A childcare facility is directly attached to the institute.

If you would like to work in a dedicated team, please convince us now by sending us your complete application documents together with your salary expectations and your earliest possible date of joining the Institute.
