Über diesen Job
PhD student in cancer proteomics (m/f/d)
available in the Division of Proteomics of Stem Cells and cancer, headed by Prof. Jeroen Krijgsveld. Our division develops innovative proteomic approaches to understand proteome regulation in cancer, both in mechanistic and clinical studies. To expand our activities, we are looking for a motivated PhD student to investigate mechanisms of disease and drug resistance in myeloid leukemia.
- Job-ID: V000014484
- Field of application: Zentrum für Infektiologie
- Location: Heidelberg
- Start date: as of now
- Job Category: Science and teaching
- Working hours: Part time (65 %)

- Limitation: Temporary (3 years with the possibility for extension)
- Contract: TV-L
We are looking for motivated researcher with experience in mass spectrometry-based proteomics to join a project aimed at understanding cellular plasticity, therapy response, and drug resistance in myeloid leukemia. The successful candidate will perform proteomic experiments to investigate cellular plasticity using primary cells, cell lines, and patient-derived xenograft (PDX) models. To this end, the candidate will have direct access to cutting-edge mass spectrometry and advanced bioinformatics infrastructure. The project is part of the collaborative research center "Cellular Plasticity in Malignant Myeloid Diseases – From Mechanisms to Therapy” and is a close collaboration with the Department of Hematology and other partners in the consortium.
Your profile
- MSc degree in (analytical) chemistry, biochemistry, or a related discipline
- Hands-on experience in mass spectrometry-based proteomics (e.g. DDA, DIA, PRM)
- Experience with proteomic data analysis
- Computer literacy and basic programming skills (R, Python), or the willingness to develop these skills
- Analytical mindset, with a keen interest in advancing proteomic methodologies
We offer
- Cutting-edge proteomic infrastructure and innovative proteomics workflows
- Work with an experienced, interdisciplinary, and international team
- Collectively agreed remuneration, attractive company pension scheme (VBL)
- 30 days vacation
- Sustainable travel: job ticket
- Family-friendly working environment: cooperative arrangements for childcare, subsidy for child vacation care, advice for employees with relatives in need of care
