The Department of Biology within the Faculty of Science, Eberhard-Karls-Universität Tübingen, Germany, invites applications for the position (starting October 1st, 2013) of
  

Full Professor (W3) in General Genetics 

The successful candidate pursues an internationally recognized research program in the field of molecular or cell biology of plants. Scientific achievements of the applicant must be demonstrated by excellent publications and by a successful record in acquiring external funding. He/She is expected to teach genetics in its entirety. 

Possible research areas comprise genetics of plant physiological and biochemical processes, genetics of plant interactions with other organisms, evolutionary genetics, the genetic basis of biodiversity, or genomics-based approaches in plant biology and ecology.      

As a part of the Tübingen Center for Plant Molecular Biology (ZMBP) the successful candidate is expected to cooperate closely with other research groups therein. Active contribution to the planned Collaborative Research Centre on 'Molecular mechanisms conferring specificity in plant development' is most desirable. We further envisage scientific co-operations with the Tübingen-based Max-Planck-Institute for Developmental Biology, the Interfaculty Institute of Microbiology and Infection Medicine, and the Evolution and Ecology Forum Tübingen (EvE).

 

A formal requirement for appointment is postdoctoral experience in scientific research and teaching that is equivalent to a habilitation.

The University of Tübingen is committed to increase the number of women in science and therefore strongly encourages applications of qualified female scientists.

Qualified, disabled applicants will receive preference over equally qualified, non-disabled applicants. 

Applications, including a curriculum vitae, a publication list, and separate statements of past and future research and teaching interests should be sent by e-mail to the Dean of the Faculty of Science, University of Tübingen, Germany (dekanat(at)mnf.uni-tuebingen.de) no later than March 15, 2012.

 9.6.2011

 

Am Zentrum für Molekularbiologie der Pflanzen (ZMBP) der Universität Tübingen ist ab sofort eine Stelle für eine/n

Doktorand/in der Pflanzenmolekularbiologie

 zu besetzen. 

 

Ziel des Projekts ist es, die Funktion spezifischer 14-3-3 Proteine in der Modellpflanze Arabidopsis thaliana zu charakterisieren. 14-3-3 Proteine sind als Phosphoserin/threonin-bindende Polypeptide in Eukaryoten bekannt und regulieren/koordinieren über direkte Proteininteraktionen eine Vielzahl zellulärer Prozesse.

 

Vorarbeiten zeigen u.a., dass eine definierte phylogenetische Subgruppe von 14-3-3 Isoformen für die Synthese, die Signaltransduktion oder den Transport des Phytohormons Auxin essentiell ist. Zur Aufklärung des zugrunde liegenden molekularen Wirkmechanismus sollen biochemische, molekular-biologische, physiologische und genetische Methoden zum Einsatz kommen.

 

Wir suchen einen/eine MitarbeiterIN mit abgeschlossenem Studium in der Biologie oder der Biochemie. Vorkenntnisse in der Pflanzenmolekularbiologie sind wünschenswert, jedoch nicht Voraussetzung. Erste Informationen zum Thema finden Sie z.B. in Oecking & Jaspert (2009) Plant 14-3-3 proteins catch up with their mammalian orthologs. Curr Opin Plant Biol 12, 760-765.

PhD position

Molecular Plant-Pathogen Interactions

A phD position will be available on 1^st of July 2011 within the Dept. of Plant Biochemistry at the ZMBP-Eberhard-Karls University in Tübingen, Germany. Our research focuses on pathogen perception and host cell-reprogramming by microbial factors in the model plant Arabidopsis. The aim of the project will consist to combine biochemical and molecular approaches to understand the role in planta of Avr2, an effector from Phytophthora infestans, the causal agent of potato late blight.  

Applicants should hold a M.Sc. or equivalent in biological sciences with some experience in plant physiology and/or genetics. Basic knowledge in Bioinformatics would be an advantage. A salary according to German standards (E13/65% TV-L) will be provided.

Applications should include a CV, a brief summary of previous research experience and letters of reference, to send via E-mail to frederic.brunner(at)zmbp.uni-tuebingen.de

Plant Biochemistry

13.1.2011

 

Graduate student position available                     

 

The Center for Plant Molecular Biology ZMBP in Tübingen/Germany invites biologists or biochemists to apply for a PhD student position jointly supervised by renowned Distinguished Guest Professor Jeffrey Dangl (University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill). This position (E13 TV-L / 50%) is now available for three years. The major topic of the work will be the molecular, mechanistic and physiological analysis of receptor kinases implicated in plant immunity to microbial infection. Particular emphasis will be put on those receptors that are target of interference by microbial effectors. For more information on our labs please visit http://www.mnf.uni-tuebingen.de/fachbereiche/zentren/zmbp/plant-biochemistry.html or http://www.bio.unc.edu/faculty/dangl/. For more information on the project please contact us via email: birgit.kemmerling(at)zmbp.uni-tuebingen.de.

 

We offer an innovative and scientifically stimulating environment, a well-equipped lab as well as an international and cooperative research team. The highly motivated candidate must hold an excellent degree in biology or biochemistry, should be fluent in English and should have some experience in protein biochemistry and/or molecular biology. Please send as soon as possible a cover letter, a CV and names of two references preferably by email to:
