Job Opportunities

DKFZ

Positions for 2 doctoral students (initially 2 years) are offered.

Tätigkeitsbeschreibung/Aufgaben Description of duties
The task of the successful candidate will be to perform in silico screening including ADMETox evaluation of compounds. Structure-based (docking) and ligand-based methods ([3D] similarity screening) will be applied.
As targets (including structures) are experimentally examined in labs from different locations in Germany, data exchange and communication with consortial partners is an important task.

Gewünschte Qualifikation/Profil Desired qualifications
- PhD in bioinformatics, biology, biotechnology or related fields - Strong background in computational biology
- Experiences in drug development / structural biology - Excellent command of English (written and oral)
- Highly motivated person with proven skills in team working and communication

Das Graduiertenkolleg "Computergestützte Systembiologie" sucht kurzfristig Doktoranden
Funded by: DFG

The Research Training Group for Computational Systems Biology (CSB) comprises 12 PhD and 1 postdoctoral projects devoted to the development of new theoretical concepts and their application to current and upcoming problems in cell and molecular biology. The CSB consortium comprises five well known institutes in Berlin: the Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, the Freie Universität Berlin, the Charité - Universitätsmedizin Berlin, the Max Planck Institute for Molecular Genetics, and the Max Delbrück Center for Molecular Medicine Berlin-Buch. The research topics are grouped in four pillars: (i) structural investigation of protein-protein and protein-RNA interactions, (ii) detailed kinetic models of cellular processes, (iii) reverse engineering for prediction of genetic network from new types of data, and (iv) spatio-temporal organization of networks.
