Beschreibung
The University Medical Center Göttingen (UMG) unites the Medical Faculty of Georg-August University and the University Hospital in an integration model. With over 9,700 employees, the UMG and its subsidiaries are one of the largest employers in the region. More than 60 clinics, institutes and departments stand for high-quality patient care, excellent research and modern teaching.
Göttingen as a city of science is located in the center of Germany and the University Medical Center Göttingen is integrated into an attractive network of university and non-university scientific institutions.
Our goal as University Medical Center Göttingen is professional equality for all genders. We strive to equalize the gender ratio in areas where there is underrepresentation. The University Medical Center Göttingen is particularly committed to the professional participation of severely disabled people and therefore welcomes applications from severely disabled people. In the case of equal suitability, applications from severely disabled persons will be given preferential consideration in accordance with the relevant regulations. We kindly ask you to indicate a disability/equal status in your letter of application in order to safeguard your interests.

Postdoctoral Scientist Position (f/m/d)
full time, hours per week, limited to 2 yearsRemuneration according to TV-L E13
Therapy Development for Gastrointestinal Cancers
We are deploying cellular human and murine model systems including patient-derived organoids to study molecular and translational aspects of therapies relevant for GI cancers (e.g. Advanced Science, 2024, e2307695; Cell Mol Life Sci, 2022, 80: 12; Nature Methods, 2022, 19:803; JCI Insight, 2022, 7: e151353; EMBO Mol Med, 2022, 14:e14876; Cancer Res, 2022, 82:695; Nature Cancer, 2022, 3:318; Cancer Discov, 2021, 11:3158; Gut, 2020, 69:1472; https://chirurgie.umg.eu/forschung/ag-schneider-en/). We utilize these systems to uncover adaptive processes leading to therapy resistance. Consequently, the advertised projects focus on (1) identifying common processes established in drug-tolerant persister cells induced by both targeted and non-targeted therapies, and (2) exploiting this knowledge to develop novel therapeutic interventions.
Your tasks
