About this position
PhD student position in human T cell immunology at the Schober Lab, Institute of Clinical Microbiology, Immunology and Hygiene, Universitätsklinikum Erlangen / Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg, Germany.
The project focuses on human antigen-specific T cell responses to flavivirus infection and vaccination, with a strong emphasis on T cell receptor (TCR) repertoire analysis, epitope specificity, and large-scale TCR re-expression. The work combines flow cytometry, single-cell RNA sequencing, molecular epitope screens, and CRISPR/Cas9-based transgenic TCR re-expression.
This opportunity is well suited to candidates interested in immunology, virology, molecular biology, and high-throughput mechanistic approaches to understanding how T cells recognize pathogens and shape immune responses.
Eligibility: an excellent M.Sc. degree in immunology, biology, biochemistry, biotechnology, molecular medicine, bioinformatics, or an equivalent field; good working knowledge in immunology or molecular biology; scientific enthusiasm; teamwork; and English proficiency.
Funding: paid PhD employment according to TV-L E13, depending on qualifications and personal prerequisites. The position is intended for three years, with part-time employment possible.
Timeline: start around September 2026 (slightly earlier or later possible). Application deadline: 31 July 2026.
How to apply: submit a CV, motivation letter, and references/names of referees via the application link. Candidates are encouraged to apply promptly.
