“Research for a life without cancer" is our mission at the German Cancer Research Center. We investigate how cancer develops, identify cancer risk factors and look for new cancer prevention strategies. We develop new methods with which tumors can be diagnosed more precisely and cancer patients can be treated more successfully. Every contribution counts – whether in research, administration or infrastructure. This is what makes our daily work so meaningful and exciting.
The Divison of Pediatric Glioma Research is seeking for the next possible date a Technical Assistant / Biology Laboratory Assistant.
Reference number: 2025-0197
Our division characterizes and models rare pediatric brain tumor entities, primarily pediatric gliomas. We use the latest techniques, such as next-generation sequencing and other omics methods, to study tumor biology in detail. Furthermore, we are working on the application of personalized medicine. Depending on the individual tumor, precise diagnostic procedures allow us to identify and treat possible therapeutic targets. Another important function of the group is to bridge the gap between basic biology and clinical application. This is an area that we now want to strengthen.
We are seeking an enthusiastic, well-organized technical assistant with an interest in preclinical basic research, an aptitude for teamwork, and a willingness to take on responsibility. The successful candidate will work in an international team together with technical staff, postdocs, and doctoral students. The successful candidate will be responsible for establishing, planning, conducting and evaluating experiments with mouse models in vivo and tumor cell lines in vitro. The technical and organizational work includes the following tasks in particular.
