A combination of directed pluripotent stem cell differentiation, genomics, in vivo genetic analyses and ex vivo experiments including organoids is being used (https://www.digs-bb.de/research/research-groups/anthony-gavalas/).

The successful candidate will have either a M.Sc. or Ph.D. degree in Biology and related disciplines, extensive experience in cell culture, preferably with embryonic and pluripotent stem cells, very good organizational skills and strong molecular biology background.
