The Division of Signal Transduction and Growth Control at the DKFZ
has an opening for a
Postdoctoral Position
Angiogenesis is essential for the development of vertebrate embryos
and has a pivotal role in physiological and pathological conditions
in adults, such as tumor progression. We have recently identified
novel mechanisms in which the transcription factor JunB plays a
critical role in regulating VEGF and tumor angiogensis (Schmidt
et al., 2007, EMBO J.) but also in triggering endothelial cell morphogenesis
(Licht et al, 2006; J Cell Biol.). To follow up on these findings
we are seeking for a Postdoctoral Candidate interested in studying
cell-cell communication and gene programs implicated in tumor angiogenesis
and tumor progression in genetically modified mice. The project
is embedded within the Transregio SFB "Vascular differentiation
and Remodeling" and thus, the successful candidate is also
expected to coordinate collaborative research activities with other
groups of the SFB.
Applicants must hold a PhD in Biology/Biochemistry, be highly motivated
and integrate themselves into a team. An excellent background in
molecular biology, endothelial cell biology and experimental animal
work is requested. The position is available immediately and initially
for 2 years.
Applicants are encouraged to send their CV and names and phone
numbers of two referees to Dr. Marina Schorpp-Kistner, Deutsches
Krebsforschungszentrum, Abt. Signaltransduktion und Wachstumskontrolle,
A100, Im Neuenheimer Feld 280, D-69120 Heidelberg, Germany. E-mail:
marina.schorpp@dkfz.de
