The Else Kröner Fresenius Zentrum für optogenetische Therapien of the University Medical Centre Göttingen is looking for a new position to 01.01.2025
Clinician Scientists (f/m/d)
full time, hours per week, for at least 12 months
Remuneration according to TV-Ärzte
The EKFZ for optogenetic therapies at the University Medical Center Göttingen is dedicated to the translation of four core approaches to restore (1) hearing and (2) vision and explore the potential of optogenetics for (3) gastric pacemaking and (4) brain-computer interfaces. These four teams are supported by the platforms for (1) opsin engineering, (2) gene transfer, (3) disease models, (4) immune-phenotyping and (5) development of medical devices.
The goal of this center is to harness the great potential of optogenetics - the control of cells with light via light-sensitive proteins (opsins) - for clinical use. Optogenetics enables spatially confined, cell-type-specific control of organs and promises a transformative improvement of clinical care beyond that provided by conventional electrical medical devices for a wide range of patients.
As a Clinician Scientist you will be a key for further and improved optogenetic therapies to become available to patients. The EKFZ academy will provide you with a training program tailored to translation including courses on methods, good laboratory-, manufacturing- and clinical- practice, medical statistics, regulatory processes, pre-clinical and clinical trial planning.
Please submit your application until October 15th, 2024, exclusively online via the application-button by accessing the corresponding job advertisement with the title Clinician Scientists consisting of:
2. Description of the project (max. 2 pages)
3. Main research question/ goal (max. 1 page)
4. Project plan (max. 2 pages)
5. Clinical relevance and integration into the EKFZ (1/2 page)
In view to this, you are welcome to contact Mr. Andreas Bock, email, to assist you to get in touch with the suitable EKFZ team or platform members.
