The Center for Molecular Bioengineering (B CUBE) (https://tu-dresden.de/cmcb/bcube) and its partner institutions, the Biotechnology Center (BIOTEC) and the Center for Regenerative Therapies Dresden (CRTD), are equipped with state-of-the-art facilities for Molecular Bioscience and Biomaterial Research (https://tu-dresden.de/cmcb/bcube/forschung-technologie/technologieplattform). They are part of a rich and collaborative environment that includes the School of Science, the Carl Gustav Carus Faculty of Medicine, the Max Planck Institute of Molecular Cell Biology and Genetics (MPI-CBG), and the Leibniz Institute for Polymer Research (Dresden) IPF).
For TUD Dresden University of Technology diversity is an essential feature and a quality criterion of an excellent university. Accordingly, we welcome all applicants who would like to commit themselves, their achievements and productivity to the success of the whole institution.
At B CUBE, an Institute of the Center for Molecular and Cellular Bioengineering (CMCB), the Chair of Bioprospecting (Prof. Dr. Yael Politi, https://tu-dresden.de/cmcb/bcube/forschungsgruppen/politi?set_language=en) offers a position as
Research Associate / PhD student (m/f/x)
(subject to personal qualification employees are remunerated according to salary group E 13 TV-L)
starting as soon as possible. The position is limited to three years with the option of extension and comprises 65% of the full-time weekly hours. The period of employment is governed by the Fixed Term Research Contracts Act (Wissenschaftszeitvertragsgesetz - WissZeitVG). The position offers the chance to obtain further academic qualification. The successful applicant will join the research project “Exploring the Morphogenesis of Omniphobic Nano-Ornamentations on the Springtail Cuticle”, funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG). This project investigates the biological formation of nano-scaled ornamentation on the surface of springtails exoskeleton, which renders its surface omniphobic, repelling both hydrophobic and hydrophilic liquids.
The Politi group studies arthropod exoskeletons as a model to unravel the molecular mechanisms underlying bio-composite formation in biology. Springtails, Collembola (Entognatha), are soil-dwelling arthropods within the hexapod lineage. They play a crucial ecological role in soil formation. Springtails adopted epidermal respiration when transitioning to terrestrial life about 450 million years ago, a respiration mode that demands robust mechanisms to prevent wetting and repel the adhesion of organic, inorganic and microbial matter from the exoskeleton.
The successful applicant will use state-of-the-art biochemical, genomic, transcriptomic and cell biological tools to understand the formation of cuticular ornamentation. The project is a collaboration between B CUBE (Yael Politi), IPF (Ralf Helbig, Carsten Werner) and the Senckenberg Institute (Clement Schneider).
university degree (MSc.) in biochemistry, molecular genetics, biological materials, or related fields
Applicants with strong research experience in transcriptome sequencing and analysis will be preferred.
Prior experience in electron microscopy or mass spectrometry is advantageous but not required.
Strong writing skills with a proven track record of successful research are essential.
Excellent communication skills in English are indispensable, as this is the colloquial language at the research center.
