Postdoctoral Researcher (gn*) Cardiovascular Physiology
The position is intramurally funded (100% TV-L E13) and available from August 2024, for 3 years initially, with the possibility of extension after positive evaluation. Experimental work will be done within a research project focusing on the role of titin in the heart. The project also uses mouse and cell culture models to study how cardiac structure and function are altered depending on titin properties in health and heart disease. We are seeking a trained and motivated scientist holding a PhD or MD degree and having experience in biophysics, molecular biology, biochemistry, cell biology, physiology or similar disciplines. The postdoctoral fellow will join the Institute of Physiology II, University of Muenster, Germany, under the direction of Prof. Dr. Wolfgang Linke. This research group is world-renowned for its work in determining the importance of the giant protein titin under healthy conditions and in failing muscle/heart.
Applicants should be motivated and have obtained a PhD or MD degree in physiology, molecular cardiology, cell biology, biochemistry, biomechanics, or a related field. Applicants should be willing to present research that they have carried out, and to strive towards publication of their research in scientific journals. While a high level of English competency is required, the post also involves teaching to medical students; therefore, knowledge of German language or willingness to become fluent in German is mandatory. Desired Qualifications: Candidates with experience in cardiomyocyte physiology/biology are particularly encouraged to apply. Experience with animal handling, cardiac cell culture, live cell fluorescent imaging or other microscopic imaging techniques, and proteomics/protein biochemistry is desirable. Expertise in muscle mechanical measurements would be an asset. Experience using statistical software packages such as GraphPad prism would also be an advantage.
