Graduate Student Position available
A PhD student position is available from October 2010 in the group of Dr. Martin Zörnig. Our laboratory is interested in apoptosis and cancer research, and the project will focus on the function of FUSE Binding Protein 1 in Hepatocellular Carcinoma (Rabenhorst et al., Hepatology 2009).
We offer the possibility to be trained in interesting working techniques (including mammalian cell culture, viral transduction and analysis of mouse models) in a stimulating and cooperative working atmosphere.
The position will be financed by a scholarship from the Graduiertenkolleg 1172 (GK1172; please visit www.grk-1172.de; payment is equivalent to BATIIa/2) and implies a training program in tumor biology and biologicals).
