About this position
PhD opening at the University of Tübingen in the Institute of Pharmacy, Department of Pharmacology, Pharmacotherapy and Clinical Pharmacy, in a DFG-funded project on the role of hepatic stellate cells in liver regeneration and fibrosis.
The project investigates how Arg1-mediated pathways, autophagy, self-renewal, NO synthesis, and polyamine production contribute to liver homeostasis, using endothelial-specific Arg1 knockout mice and related experimental approaches. This is an interdisciplinary PhD at the interface of biochemistry, cell biology, and pathophysiology.
Eligibility highlights: a Master's degree in Biochemistry, Molecular Biology, Biology, Pharmaceutical Sciences, or a related field; willingness to work with laboratory animals; strong interest in cell biology, liver pathophysiology, and scientific research; English at B2 level or higher (C1 preferred).
Funding/employment: E13 TV-L, 65%, fixed-term for 2 years initially with possible extension. The post is based in Tübingen, Germany.
