We are looking for a researcher with experience in developmental biology and interest in the link between developmental biology, senescence and cancer.

 

The recruited scientist will work on a research programme focused on understanding the embryological defects underlying paediatric diffuse midline glioma (pDMG)). These are clinically aggressive, malignant tumours with an abysmal prognosis. This is a unique opportunity for an experienced postdoc to have an active role in leading a research programme aiming to unravel the early stages of pDMG development using a combination of approaches (e.g. in utero electroporation, mouse modelling, molecular approaches, 2D and 3D cell models).

 

The salary offered in this post is £43,374 - £45,622 per annum and is funded for 3 years in the first instance (with a possible extension).

Deadline: March 24, 2025

The Laboratory of Dr. Dr. Marina Kolesnichenko offers an MD  position. 

​

 

We are a young dynamic group based on the picturesque campus Mitte, Charité Universitätsmedizin Berlin. Our group works on cell signaling in the gut and interactions between intestinal epithelial cells and their environment. To study this crosstalk, we rely on different animal models, on organoids from mouse and human gut, patient samples, and also on bioinformatical analysis. We especially interested in exploring cell fate decisions including senescence.

 

Our growing team includes both research scientists and clinicians. 

As a technical assistant in our group, you will be actively involved in our research and weekly meetings, and will provide help with ordering, cataloging, preparation of buffers, sample collection (from mice and humans), and occasional paperwork. 

 

What we offer:

• Full time, on-site work on exciting projects in a young, dynamic team where you can directly shape and contribute to evolution of the group

• Immersion in numerous cutting-edge techniques including cultures of colonoids, assembloids, organoids, advanced microscopy, multiplex staining, preparation of samples for scRNA sequencing, work with novel transgenic mouse models 

 

What we are looking for:

 

• You are detail-oriented, conscientious, motivated, and positive-minded

• You have experience and are willing to work with human samples and with mouse tissues 

• You keep excellent records (lab book) of your work and are very well organized.

• You work well in a team
