- Unique opportunity to engage in close interactions with physicians and clinical researchers at the Medical University of Vienna on one of Europe’s largest medical campuses.
- Opportunities to collaborate with industry (biotech/pharma) and to get involved in academic start-up/spin-off companies.
- Training program in project management, scientific writing, visual communication, entrepreneurship, leadership, and data science.
- Special training for writing successful ERC Starting Grants as a ‘ticket’ to an outstanding academic career.
- Being part of a thriving academic and social community in Vienna, one of the cities with the best quality of life in the world.
- A competitive postdoc salary of EUR 4,351.90 gross monthly (following the recommendations of FWF), paid 14 times yearly.
- The CeMM employment contract includes full insurance (health, accident, pension) and a one-off payment for moving from abroad.

Whom we are looking for:

- Open to both PhD (natural sciences) and MD (medical sciences) holders.
- From a variety of academic backgrounds: molecular biology, biomedical research, bioinformatics, biochemistry, bioengineering, etc.
- Required are scientific quality and originality, as well as a collaborative and interdisciplinary mindset.

Potential Projects

We are open to ideas that fit into the broader scope and mission of the CeMM Research Center for Molecular Medicine and expressions of interest in the research of all groups, but concrete projects and groups offering positions are:

- Bioinformatics for precision medicine (Bock Lab). Integrative analysis of single-cell multi-omics and spatial imaging for cancer, immunology, and epigenetic ageing clocks. Get involved in the Human Cell Atlas (single-cell analytics) and/or the European Lab for Learning & Intelligent Systems (ML/AI).
- Technology Development for Molecular Biomedicine (Bock Lab). “Progress in science depends on new techniques, new discoveries and new ideas, probably in that order” - Sydney Brenner. We are open to ideas for exciting new technologies in single-cell & spatial profiling, genome engineering, synthetic biology, organoids, and cell-based therapy.
- Discovery of novel bacterial immunoregulatory metabolites (Campbell Lab).
- Bioinformatics in chronic (vascular) liver disease (de Rooij Lab and Reiberger Lab). Integrative analysis of transcriptomics, metabolomics, and radiomics data to unravel novel liver disease and angiogenesis mechanisms.
- Metabolic landscapes in the tumour microenvironment controlling anti-tumour immunity (Maier Lab). We will employ an in vivo CRISPR screen to modulate metabolite availability at the tumor site and assess resulting immune cell infiltration and polarization by high-dimensional imaging.
- Premetastatic niches in tumor-draining lymph nodes (Maier Lab). We are investigating how the tumor reprograms the draining lymph node, and how altered lymph node niches translate into suppressed anti-tumor immunity. Areas of interest include proteomics of tumor-derived factors, high-dimensional imaging, mouse models, and patient derived material including primary lymph node cell culture.
- Chromatin modifiers in haematopoiesis and leukaemia (Seruggia Lab). We use in vitro and in vivo genome editing to identify and characterize new cancer vulnerabilities. We are interested in cancer dependencies, in non-mutational cancer evolution and in the role of enhancers in disease.
- Exploiting membrane transporters to target manganese neurotoxicity (Superti-Furga Lab).
- Molecular glues to target gene control (Winter Lab). We are interested in the synthesis, identification, and characterization of small-molecules that functionally rewire transcriptional circuits in cancer. To this goal, we leverage various functional genomics and proteomics tools, aiming to holistically address molecular mechanisms of drug action at high resolution and precision.

Eligibility Criteria:

- You must hold a PhD (or will have been awarded your PhD by the time of starting the Pre-ERC Postdoc Program) and your PhD defence date must be no earlier than 2021.
