Master’s Opportunities in Computational Biology in Germany

The International Max Planck Research School for Biology and Computation (IMPRS-BAC) is recruiting doctoral candidates for a start in 2027. This PhD programme is a collaboration between the Max Planck Institute for Molecular Genetics and Freie Universität Berlin, offering interdisciplinary training at the interface of molecular life sciences and computational sciences. Students will work in areas spanning molecular biology, biochemistry, bioinformatics, mathematics, statistics, algorithms, artif...

Heidelberg University’s Center for Molecular Biology (ZMBH), Germany, is advertising a PhD position in evolutionary genomics in the group of Henrik Kaessmann . The project sits at the intersection of biology , bioinformatics , computational genomics , and experimental molecular biology . The lab studies the origins and molecular evolution of organs in mammals and other vertebrates, with a strong focus on the evolution of gene expression and its regulatory basis. Current research uses comparative...

PhD opportunity at the University of Mainz , Germany, in the Czodrowski Lab on identification of new small molecule inhibitors for the aspartic protease endothiapepsin . The project combines structural biology , machine learning , and biophysical methods such as ITC , STD NMR , X-ray diffraction , switchSENSE , and FRET to study drug discovery and protein-ligand interactions. The research aims to virtually identify and experimentally verify novel inhibitors structurally related to endothiapepsin...
