About the Position
The International Doctoral Position Research Project at the University of Freiburg is funded by the German Research Foundation(DFG). MeInBio aims the dual education in BioInformatics and Laboratory which approach to exploring the spatio-temporal dynamics of gene regulation using high-resolution and high-throughput methods.
The doctoral position is looking for junior researchers with expertise in life sciences, e.g., genetics, molecular medicine, cell biology, molecular biology, medicine, or biochemistry. The dual education profile will require a strong interest in the training of the student’s respective fields or other fields.
A total of 12 doctoral positions will be available, which will be funded for up to three years.
What do they offer?
- An exciting modern research project that is well-equipped and uses state-of-the-art technologies.
- Tandems between wet research facility and bioinformatics bunches for shared trade and low-edge interdisciplinary communication.
- Different model living beings for reasonable learning and logical trade
- Professional and productive management got by a proposition warning board of trustees
- Normal courses in bioinformatics and wet lab strategies
- Extra “soft abilities” courses and get-togethers of all research training groups or individuals for scientific trade
About the Research Projects
MeInBio research traverses a wide range of model frameworks: from microbes to human malignant growth cells. MeInBio researchers utilize these frameworks to understand how cells respond to upgrades from the climate, and how cells control their improvement on a transcriptional level. In vivo, numerous comparable-looking cells in the close areas might act in an unexpected way, hence MeInBio researchers attempt to examine tiny populaces of cells or single cells.

About the University
In 1457 the Freiburg Church was the site of the foundation of a university. The lender and figure after whom the organization was named were Archduke Albert VI, of whose domain, Western Austria, Freiburg was then a section.

In 2007 the University of Freiburg became one of nine top colleges in Germany to be respected in the Greatness Drive for their research. The University of Freiburg was among the champs of the cross country “Great Educating” contest in 2009. Coordinated by the Standing Meeting of the Priests of Training and Cultural Affairs and the Stifterverband for German Science and Research, the opposition perceives imaginative educational ideas.
Since February 2022, more than 200 individuals from the university have been grappling with inquiries about the university’s future in ten working gatherings. The University of Freiburg will start its statement of purpose process in the fall of 2022. The statement of purpose merges the University of Freiburg’s overall qualities and its mental self-portrait with a view to the future.
