The overall aims of the project you will be working on are to uncover new signal transduction mechanisms, and to identify and characterize novel inhibitors of these processes. We take a multidisciplinary approach including high throughput chemical screens, genetics, (bio)chemistry, cell biology, zebrafish/mouse models and mathematics/bioinformatics. As a postdoc, you will have a leading role in research projects. Thus, you will also supervise other researchers and PhD candidates and take the lead in research projects. You will also publish your results in high-impact scientific journals and present your findings at (inter)national conferences.
In short
· You have a PhD degree in (bio)chemistry or molecular cell biology
· You have multiple years of experience and expertise in the subject and as a researcher
· Experience with animal models is desirable
· You will work in an innovative academic environment where groundbreaking research takes place
· The multidisciplinary nature of the LUMC ensure a continuous development as a professional
