Scientific assistant (f/m/x) on software development in Hydrology

The "Statistics Service", part of the department People and Culture, is a central service providing statistical support for scientists at the UFZ. Our aim is to assist UFZ scientists in the design and analysis of projects, through consulting and training.
The department People and Culture is offering the position of Statistics consultant (f/m/x) with a start date of 1 September 2021 (flexible).

Student Assistant (m/f/x) in a bioinformatics project on long-read sequencing

Student assistant (m/f/x) for microscopy of plant roots in the Department "Soil ecology"

We are seeking a highly self-motivated senior postdoc with a drive for science management and a strong proven track record in mass spectrometry based microbial metabolomics and /or flux analysis. The management part requires a strong personality with excellent communication skills and excellent time management. The scientific part will also include mentoring a new PhD student on the topic and aims at developing high resolution mass spectrometry (Thermo Exploris 240) coupled to ion-chromatography (IC) or liquid chromatography (LC) into a tool for analysing extra- and intracellular metabolomes of natural and synthetic consortia. In combination with metabolic modelling and isotopomer tracing, the generated data is fed to deep learning platforms and ultimately used to understand metabolic relationships in these consortia and to drive optimization.

In the UFZ research unit chemicals in the environment (TB CITE) scientists aim to promote the development of green chemistry. One goal is to gain a mechanistic and principle understanding of physico-chemical parameters in combination with biological key events and molecular responses to assess the fate and activity of ionic compounds across species in a human and environmental health perspective.

The research group BioGeoOmics seeks for a motivated PhD student with strong analytical backgound and interest to work in a multidisciplinary project and an international team.

We are looking to hire a dedicated PhD student with a high interest in state of the art bioanalytical techniques and also in practical beekeeping.

The UFZ department of Environmental Immunology is seeking a doctoral student for analysis of the molecular mechanisms underlying uterine spiral artery remodeling, a critical process for pregnancy and fetal well-being. Relevance of mast cells and chymase and influence of environmental factors will be investigated.
