Proteomics Postdoctoral Positions 2013 Germany

Two positions at the junior and senior postdoc level are available at Mosaiques Diagnostics in Hannover, Germany. The projects involve employing capillary electrophoresisi coupled mass spectrometry for the identification and validation of proteomic biomarkers for a variety of human diseases, with a focus on cardiovascular and kidney disease. Mosaiques Diagnostics is a leading company in proteomic biomarker research, focusing on urine.

Further information on the technology and application is detailed in e.g.; Good et al. Mol. Cell Proteomics 2010, 9:2424; Mischak et al. Proteomics Clin. Appl. 2011, 5:9; Mullen et al. Curr. Opin. Nephrol. Hypertens. 2011, 20:654; Kuznetsova et al. Eur. Heart J 2012 33: 2342; Zürbig et al. Diabetes 2012 61:3304-3313; Metzger et al., Gut. 2013 62:122; Stalmach et al., Electrophoresis, in press. The project requires close interaction with collaborating scientists and clinicians in and outside Germany, e.g. the U.K., Denmark, Austria, France, Greece, US, and Australia.

Requirements:

• Candidates are requested to hold a PhD in (bio)chemistry or relevant fields and have expertise in mass spectrometry.
• English proficiency is required.
• The ideal candidate for the junior position should have a track record of publications in the proteomics field. The ideal candidate for the senior position should be well established in the field, have experience in clinical studies, and experience in attracting funding including EU applications.

The positions are in a fast moving SME Biomarker research and development company and would suite someone with ambition and a drive to succeed. Additional experience in “omics” technology, separation science and data handling is desirable, but not mandatory.
