The German Center for Neurodegenerative Diseases (DZNE) is a world-leading internationally oriented research center, committed to discovering new approaches to prevent and treat neurodegenerative diseases. To this end, researchers at ten DZNE sites across Germany pursue a translational and interdisciplinary strategy comprising five interconnected areas: fundamental research, clinical research, health care research, population health science, and systems medicine (dzne.de). The DZNE in Bonn is looking for a Postdoctoral Researcher (f/m/x) with Computational / Bioinformatics Background Code 1312/2024/5 The Capasso lab (dzne.de/en/research/research-areas/fundamental-research/research-groups/capasso/research-areasfocus) is seeking an interactive and self-motivated bioinformatician / computational biologist to join a team of cell and molecular biologists working on the immune system and its changes in aging and neurodegeneration. The projects will focus on interrogating and integrating existing transcriptome, translatome, and proteome datasets generated from genetically engineered mouse models, with a specific focus on regulation of mRNA translation downstream mTOR activation in microglia. This program of work is based on published / unpublished studies from the team. The successful candidate will benefit from the many interactions within the bioinformatics environment at DZNE and the University of Bonn. The post is based within the DZNE Research Institute at Bonn Venusberg. A strong mentoring program for career development is provided. Expertise in applied bioinformatics / computational biology is required and knowledge of statistics would be an advantage. A PhD in bioinformatics, computational biology, or a related subject is essential, preferably with a focus on gene expression. Previous experience in bioinformatics analysis applied to regulation of mRNA translation will be highly desirable. An interesting and challenging research structure that works on the future topics of health research An international environment characterized by a strong focus on science and research A high potential for the individual development of our employees Targeted personnel development Company pension plan, health management Employment, payment, and social benefits are determined by the Public Sector Collective Agreement (Tarifvertrag für den öffentlichen Dienst - TVöD Bund).
