Postdoc Position Sleep and Circadian-Driven Nuclear Multi-Omics Dynamics

We are looking for a highly motivated and talented postdoc to join the Robles group, Systems Chronobiology, at the LMU Munich, Germany. We have an open position funded by the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative Neurodegeneration Challenge Network (NCDN) within a collaborative project together with Angel Barco’s laboratory (Neuroscience Institute, Alicante, Spain).

The overarching aim of the project is to characterize circadian and sleep-driven nuclear multi-omics dynamics in diverse mouse brain cells using high-end RNAseq and proteomics technology. The Robles group employs a wide range of mass spectrometry-based quantitative proteomics methods to study, in health and diseases, circadian and sleep-driven molecular mechanisms (click here to learn more about the group).

We seek a motivated, enthusiastic, and talented postdoctoral researcher with the following qualifications: • Recent doctoral degree (biochemistry, bioinformatics or similar). • Experience with high-throughput quantitative proteomics and DIA methods; subcellular proteomics background is a plus. • Expertise operating nanoLC-HPLC and Thermo Orbitrap instruments. • Ability to perform large scale multi-omics data analysis and programming skills (such as R, Python). • Excellent written and oral communications skills in English, proficiency in German is a plus. • Able to work independently, interact with a multicultural team and collaborators and capable to mentor graduate and undergraduate students.

We offer: • Full postdoctoral position within the German public service scale (TV-L). • Cutting edge instrumentations, excellent infrastructure, and core facilities. • Opportunity to manage a high prestigious international collaborative project and interact among the CZI network. • Excellent scientific environment in one of the top-ranked universities in Germany located in an international, vibrant and beautiful city. To apply: Please send your application (cover letter indicating your fit for this position and a detailed CV with 2-3 references) to Maria Robles: crobles@med.lmu.de

Screening of applications will begin immediately and will close on 01.05.2024. Only selected applicants will be contacted for an interview.

Postdoc Position Systems Chronobiology

A postdoc position is currently available in the research group of Maria Robles, Systems Chronobiology, at the LMU Munich, Germany. The position is associated to a SNSF funded SINERGIA collaborative project together with Adamantidis laboratory. This multidisciplinary project aims to identify molecular markers of brain activity during sleep using a range of neurophysiological techniques (Adamantidis) and mass spectrometry (MS)- based quantitative proteomics (Robles) (see doi:10.1126/science.aav2642; doi:10.1126/science.aav3617).

The Robles group employs a range of MS-based proteomics approaches to study molecular mechanism regulating circadian and sleep processes (click here to learn more about us).

We seek a motivated, enthusiastic, and talented postdoctoral researcher with the following qualifications:
Recent doctoral degree (biochemistry, bioinformatics or similar).
Experience with high-throughput quantitative proteomics approaches, single cell proteomics and DIA methods are a plus.
Expertise operating nanoLC-HPLC and Thermo Orbitrap instruments.
Ability to perform large scale multi-omics data analysis and programming skills (R, Python).
Excellent written and oral communications skills in English, proficiency in German is a plus.
Able to work independently, interact with members of a research team as well as collaborators and aptitude to mentor graduate and undergraduate students.

We offer:
Full postdoctoral position within the German public service scale (TV-L).
Cutting edge instrumentations, excellent infrastructure and core facilities.
Close mentorship and opportunity to manage an international collaborative project.
International and European networking with multidisciplinary academic and industry researchers.
Excellent scientific environment in one of the top-ranked universities in Germany located in an international, vibrant and beautiful city.
Support with family and work compatibility.
