The Max-Planck-Institute for Molecular Biomedicine in Muenster, Germany has an opening for a
Postdoctoral Scientist
(position-code 07-2016)
The position is available in the DFG Emmy Noether junior group of Dr. Ivan Bedzhov that is focused on understanding the self-organization of the pluripotent lineage in mammalian embryos at the time of implantation (I. Bedzhov and M. Zernicka-Goetz, Cell, 2014). The successful candidate will investigate the mechanisms of self-organization of the pluripotent epiblast in the context of the developing embryo and in vitro using embryonic stem cell as a model system.
We are looking for a talented and highly motivated post-doctoral scientist with strong cell and molecular biology background. Previous experience with RNA-seq analysis, genome editing and embryonic stem cells will be an advantage.

All conditions for the employment will be according to the regulations of the contracts for the civil service (TVöD, Tarifvertrag für den öffentlichen Dienst) level 13 TVöD.
