PhD Studentship: Functional Analysis of Major Transcriptional Regulators in Pathogenic Dermatophytes, Germany

/ March 30, 2011 Leave a Comment

Although dermatophytes cause the majority of superficial fungal infections in humans and animals,
little is known about the pathogenicity or basic biology of these filamentous fungi at the molecular level. The planned project sets out to identify and characterize the role of putative, major transcriptional regulators in dermatophytes. This work should provide fundamental insights into environmental adaptation mechanisms of these clinically important fungal pathogens.

We expect:
• a Master’s degree (or equivalent) in Natural Sciences (e.g., Biology, Biomedical Sciences,
Biotechnology or related fields). Candidates about to obtain their degree are welcome to apply.
• a high interest in molecular/microbiological research and basic skills in applying current techniques of these fields
• high motivation and interest in joining one of the interdisciplinary research areas of the JSMC
• creativity and interest in shaping your own thesis project
• an integrative and cooperative personality
• very good communication skills in English (the language of instruction at the JSMC)

We offer:
• a highly communicative atmosphere within a scientific network providing top?level research
conditions
• a PhD stipend paid for three years according to the rules of the DFG (German Research Foundation) as well as generous research funding
• a comprehensive mentoring program with efficient supervision by a team of supervisors
• a top?level PhD training program with courses in state?of?the?art research technologies and soft skills
• Jena – the German City of Science 2008: a young and lively town with dynamic business activities, successful scientific centers of innovation and a vibrant cultural scene around the famous Friedrich Schiller University
