About this position

PhD opportunity at University Hospital RWTH Aachen in Germany within CRC/SFB 1739, focusing on periodontal-immune interactions and mechanically induced periodontal ligament remodelling.

The project is supervised by Dr. ing. Jitske Jansen and Prof. Horst Fischer. The research combines stem cell-derived human in vitro models, hydrogels, and advanced bioreactors to study tissue remodelling and immune crosstalk. The successful candidate will identify novel targets from omics datasets and validate them using genetic/pharmacological perturbation, with single-cell RNA sequencing and spatial transcriptomics used to build a translational data atlas.

Eligibility highlights: an MSc in Biology, Biomedical Sciences, or a related field, plus excellent English. The post is a PhD position (First Stage Researcher R1), temporary and part-time, with TV-L E13, 65% funding and DFG-funded doctoral training through IRTG.

Application materials requested: CV, motivation letter, and reference letter. Apply by email to Dr. Jitske Jansen at [email protected], and consult the project career page for additional details. Deadline: 30 September 2026.
