Postdoctoral and PhD positions in regulation of metabolism

Postdoctoral and PhD positions are available in the German Research Foundation (DFG) sponsored laboratory of Dr. Grzegorz Sumara at the Rudolf Virchow Center, University of Wuerzburg, Germany: http://www.rudolf‐virchow‐zentrum.de/en/research/research‐ groups/sumara‐group/research.html

Our laboratory investigates signaling cascades regulating basic metabolic processes in liver and adipose tissue under normal and pathophysiological conditions.

Available projects aim at identification of novel signaling modules in adipocytes and hepatocytes that are implicated in progression of metabolic disorders. Candidates having background in biochemistry, mouse genetics and cell biology are especially welcome.

The Rudolf Virchow Center is one of the best German basic research institutes focused on understanding biological mechanisms at the molecular, cellular and organism level and offers state‐of‐the‐art research facilities and a vibrant, international scientific community: http://www.rudolf‐virchow‐zentrum.de/en/rudolf‐virchow‐ center.html

Motivated, curious and independent individuals interested in joining us in Wuerzburg should send a single pdf document including cover letter stating past and future research interests, CV and publication list to Dr. Grzegorz Sumara: grzegorz.sumara@uni‐wuerzburg.de
