Studentische oder wissenschaftliche Hilfskraft

Student assistant for the Plant Systems Biology Department (190d)

We are the Plant Systems Biology Department, and our research centers on proteomics — uncovering how proteins shape plant growth, adaptation, and resilience.
We are looking for a motivated student assistant to join our team and actively contribute to our experimental work in molecular plant biology.
You will be involved in hands-on laboratory work, including:
• Molecular cloning (extraction of plant RNA, performing PCR reactions, gel electrophoresis, transformation of bacteria)
• Extracting plant proteins (preparing buffers, homogenization of plant tissues, protein extraction, quantification of protein concentration)
Depending on your interest and experience, you might also work on:
• Generation of transgenic plants (floral dipping, Agrobacterium infiltration)
• Genotyping
• Microscopy

Who We’re Looking For
• A reliable and detail-oriented student with an interest in molecular biology who wants to get more hands-on experience in the lab.
• Our team is international, so a good level of English is appreciated.
• Willing to work 30 hours per month.
• Available for at least 6 months.

If you are interested in working with our team, we would be happy to hear from you. Please send your CV and application to Rebecca.John@uni-hohenheim.de.
