We have a clear social mission and, with our focus on healthcare, research, and teaching, we bear a unique responsibility.
Thirteen scientists of the University of Münster have teamed up with their complementary expertise to study the chemical biology of ion channels. We tackle questions in the field of ion channels with innovative structural and chemical methods, interconnecting chemistry, pharmacology, and medicine, and foster the internationalization of young researchers. The position is linked to the research group of Dr. The project aims to investigate the effects of novel potassium channel modulators (K2P and Kv7) on physiological and pathophysiological network activity in a genetic rodent model of absence epilepsy, which will be investigated in close collaboration within the ChemBion training group.
We will provide a structured 3-year cutting-edge Ph.D. student training program in and beyond the fields mentioned above.
We are looking for a motivated Ph.D. student holding a state examination degree in pharmacy or, alternatively, a master’s degree in chemistry, biochemistry or neurobiology. Excellent command of spoken and written English, communication skills, as well as team spirit are essential. German language skills are not a requirement, but a willingness to learn the language is desirable. As the project involves work with laboratory rodents, a FELASA certificate or an equivalent qualification is highly desirable.
We are looking forward to your online application by 07.5 pages)
