postdoctoral scientist (m/f/d) in the field of chemical sensory science
the leibniz institute for food systems biology at the technical university of munich (leibniz-lsb@tum) is a research institution of the leibniz association and our research group taste & odor systems reception is currently looking for a scientist as postdoctoral scientist (m/f/d) in the field of chemical sensory science. the position is to be filled on a full-time (100%, tv-l 13) basis for a period of 2 years.
research project
the research group investigates the molecular basis of human taste and odor perception, its impact on food selection and the role of taste and odorant receptors in non-sensory tissues. the open position is devoted to strengthen our activities at the intersection of taste and odor reception. the project involves the use of a well-established cellular assay to identify receptors activated by food-related compounds and to characterize key-features of agonists as well as receptor-specific pharmacological properties. the development of refined as well as novel assays for chemoreceptors will be another task of this project.
your area of responsibility includes
• refinement, development and running of cell-based chemoreceptor assays
• generation of expression constructs, cell lines and intestinal organoids
• teaching of co-workers, students in laboratory techniques
requirements:
the ideal applicant has
• a phd in molecular biology, biochemistry or a related field
• extensive experience in molecular biological, biochemical and cell biological methods (additional expertise in related areas is highly appreciated)
• ability to work independently and focused
• solid german and english communication skills
• organizational skills and is highly team-oriented
