The Institute of Molecular Biology gGmbH
funded by the Boehringer Ingelheim Foundation
is recruiting a
Staff Scientist (m/f/d)
(#CFSS05)
for the Genomics Core Facility
The Institute of Molecular Biology gGmbH (IMB) is a Centre of Excellence for Life Sciences funded by the Boehringer Ingelheim Foundation and located on the campus of the University of Mainz in Germany. IMB focuses on epigenetics, DNA repair and developmental biology and offers premium scientific core facilities (see www. imb-mainz.de/core-facilities).
The Genomics Core Facility is looking for a staff scientist to perform collaborative research in the framework of a DFG-funded Collaborative Research Center (SFB 1361),"Regulation of DNA Repair & Genome Stability". This interdisciplinary network brings together experts in structural biology, organic and biochemistry, cell and molecular biology and genetic toxicology with the aim of investigating and understanding intrinsic and environmental sources of genome instability, their biological effects and the defence mechanisms that protect cells against genotoxic stress.
Within the SFB, IMB's Genomics Core Facility will serve as point of coordination for a set of larger-scale next-generation sequencing (NGS) projects involving several SFB groups and seeking a systematic mapping of genome instability under a range of conditions. GCF currently operates a NextSeq500 and a MiSeq (Illumina sequencing platforms).
