Forschungsgruppen

We are offering positions for Master's students in the project:
 

We explore how organelles are restructured during mitosis and how they actively contribute to successful cell division. Our biological model are human cultured cells and we employ various cell culture techniques including CRISPR/Cas-mediated genome engineering. To analyze gene functions, we use a broad range of molecular cell biology methods, in particular quantitative high-resolution and super-resolution microscopy techniques, and interaction studies based on co-immunoprecipitations and proximity-dependent biotin identification (BioID).

We look for Master's students who are keen to investigate fundamental cell biological questions related to the morphogenesis and organization of membrane-bound organelles. Candidates should have a background in molecular cell biology, biochemistry or related fields, be passionate about experimental research, enjoy working in an international team and be comfortable communicating in English.
