The Faculty of Biology of the University of Freiburg invites applications for a Full Professorship (W 3) for Integrative Signalling Research.
We are looking for candidates with a competitive and internationally visible research program for the development and application of innovative methods of chemical biology in the field of biological signaling research. We particularly welcome applications from candidates who develop molecules and methods for the modulation as well as analysis of signaling pathways in animal cells and/ or organoids. These technologies should also have the potential for therapeutic applications. A close connection to the Cluster of Excellence "Centre for Integrative Biological Signalling Studies" (CIBSS) and the Centre for Biological Signalling Studies (BIOSS) is expected. It is desirable that the professorship further contributes to existing collaborative research programs (e.g. CRC 1381) and actively participates in new initiatives. This professorship represents an important interface for interdisciplinary research and offers the opportunity to integrate into a broad local cooperation network. Further information about the faculty's research profile and the academic environment can be found on the faculty's homepage www.bio.uni-freiburg.de.
The professorship is supposed to contribute to teaching in the B.Sc. and M.Sc. Biology programs in Chemical, Synthetic and Translational Biology.
Prerequisites for the employment of Professors are a university degree, an outstanding dissertation and an excellent publication record. Substantial achievements and experience in academic research and teaching, at the level of a Habilitation according to the German academic system, are expected.
