Postdoc position in Plant Synthetic Biology
with focus on genome editing

Requisition No.: 266/2018

The position is for 40 hours of work per week (100 %). The salary is determined by the collective bargaining agreement for public employees in Germany (TV-L 13 Ost). This is a temporary position limited to a term of 2 years in accordance with Section 2 subsection 1 of the Academic Fixed-Term Contract Law (WissZeitVG).
The BMBF-funded ENTIRE (Enabling technologies for RNP-mediated genome editing) project aims at the development of novel strategies for the CRISPR/Cas-mediated editing of plant genomes through transgene-free ribonucleoprotein (RNP) delivery strategies. Special emphasis is put on the improvement of HDR (homology directed repair)-mediated knock-in events and on the development of an innovative high-throughput screening system for the identification of successfully edited cells.
We are looking for an engaged researcher, preferably with previous Postdoc experience and strong expertise in plant molecular and/or synthetic biology. Practical knowledge in one or more of the following fields will be considered as an advantage:
  • Plant protoplast preparation and transfection
  • Protein purification
  • FACS (fluorescence-activated cell sorting)
  • CRISPR/Cas
Responsibilities
  • Management and scientific implementation of the ENTIRE project
  • Presentation of research data on meetings and conferences
  • Identification of potential cooperation partners
  • Support in the supervision of two PhD students who will also work on this project
Requirements
The applicants should hold a PhD degree in synthetic biology, plant biology, biochemistry, molecular biology, biotechnology or a similar field. We are seeking a candidate with knowledge and experience in synthetic biology and molecular biology to perform wet-lab experiments and data analysis. The successful candidate will also have strong organisational skills, the ability to self-manage to meet deadlines, and supervisory experience. Excellent communication skills in English are mandatory.
Offer
The University of Potsdam hosts leading groups in the field of plant molecular biology. The Department of Molecular Biology (headed by Prof. Dr. Bernd Mueller-Roeber) focuses on plant transcription factors involved in abiotic stress responses, the control of plant development by environmental stress, and synthetic biology. The Department has a close collaboration with the Max Planck Institute of Molecular Plant Physiology located at the nearby Science Campus Golm.
Potsdam is an attractive historical city and its palaces are a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Potsdam is located close to Berlin, a culturally vibrant city. Both cities have a high quality of life at modest living costs.
Under the laws of the federal state of Brandenburg, employees under this contract are permitted to dedicate at least 33 % of their contract time for their scientific qualification. The University of Potsdam strives to maintain gender balance among its staff. Severely disabled applicants shall receive preference in case of equal qualifications.
