The University of Stuttgart stands for outstanding, world-renowned research and first-class teaching in one of Europe's most dynamic industrial regions. As a reliable employer, the university supports and promotes the academic careers of its researchers. It is proud of its employees, who currently come from over 100 different countries. The university is a partner in knowledge and technology transfer and focuses on multidisciplinarity.
The Research Group “Mathematical Modeling and Simulation of Cellular Systems” focuses on modeling concepts and simulation of intracellular processes and cellular interactions. Our goal is to use models and mathematical concepts of understanding processes that cannot be directly observed. We work in close collaboration with experimental and clinical partners on projects in the life sciences and are part of several research consortia such as the Cluster of Excellence EXC 2075 “Data-Integrated Simulation Science”, the Research Unit “QuaLiPerF - Quantifying Liver Perfusion-Function Relationship in Complex Resection - A Systems Medicine Approach” and the RTG “EpiSignal - Crosstalk of intracellular signaling pathways and chromatin modification networks”.

PHD RESEARCHER POSITION (f/m/d, 75%, 13 TV-L) MODEL-BASED DESIGN OF BACTERIAL SYSTEMS
Activities and responsibilities
This project is a DFG-funded research project “Development of synthetic, methylation based epigenetic circuits” in collaboration with Prof. Albert Jeltsch (Univ. Stuttgart). The Jeltsch group has developed artificial bacterial memory circuits that can store biological input information. These circuits will be extended to process and store different input signals simultaneously, e. g. as logical AND or OR gates. You will be a member of Prof. Radde’s team. In our part of the project, we aim to use quantitative dynamic modeling at both the bulk and single cell level as a powerful tool to facilitate the mechanistic understanding of regulatory principles, information processing and storage by epigenetic circuits, thus supporting the entire design and implementation cycle.
