POSTDOCTORAL POSITION IN COMPUTATIONAL SPATIAL PROTEOMICS (m/f/d)

5. POSTDOCTORAL POSITION IN COMPUTATIONAL SPATIAL PROTEOMICS (m/f/d)The Max Delbrück Center for Molecular Medicine in the Helmholtz Association aims to transform tomorrow’s medicine through our discoveries of today. At locations in Berlin-Buch, Berlin-Mitte, Heidelberg and Mannheim, our researchers harness interdisciplinary collaboration to decipher the complexities of disease at the systems level – from molecules and cells to organs and the entire organism. Through academic, clinical, and industry partnerships, as well as global networks, we strive to translate biological discoveries into applications that enable the early detection of deviations from health, personalize treatment, and ultimately prevent disease. First founded in 1992, the Max Delbrück Center today inspires and nurtures a diverse talent pool of 1,800 people from over 70 countries. We are 90 percent funded by the German federal government and 10 percent by the state of Berlin.### Job Description* Develop computational image analysis and multi-omics data integration workflows using Python/R* Integrate digital pathology data with omics data (e.g., MS-based proteomics, spatial proteomics)* Develop and drive independent project ideas within the scope of the lab’s research* Collaborate closely within the lab, across MDC, and with external partners* Present and publish research findings, and actively pursue funding opportunities### Requirements* PhD in bioinformatics, biochemistry, molecular biology, or a related field* Background in bioimage analysis and spatial omics is welcome; a genuine interest in these areas is essential* Publication record as primary author (ideally bioimage analysis, digital pathology workflows, multiplex immunofluorescence microscopy, mass spectrometry, or multi-omics data integration)* Advanced Python and R programming skills* Excellent communication skills in English.* Scientific curiosity, independence, and a collaborative mindset### We offer* international working environment with communication in English and German* interesting career opportunities and a range of opportunities for further qualification and training* Compatibility of family and career certified by the workandfamily audit (“berufundfamilie audit”)* Support for "New Berliners" through the MDC Welcome & Family OfficeYou also benefit from:* a remuneration in accordance with the collective agreement for the federal public service (TVöD-Bund), including additional company pension schemes* a centrally funded postodctoral postion, initially for two years, with potential for extension* Career development support, including encouragement and mentoring for competitive fellowship applications* a secure job* flexible working hours and childcare support* the possibility of mobile working* an idyllic green campus, which is easily accessible by bicycle, public transport or car* free use of Nextbike from the Buch S-Bahn station to the campus* Subsidy for the job ticket as well as discounts in the campus canteen* On-campus health and fitness center* additional health benefits such as flu vaccination, eye test, ergonomics advice at the workplace**Salary**The position is remunerated according to the German TVöD (Bund) E13 based on experience and qualifications.## Commitment to Equity, Diversity and InclusionExcellence in science and innovation depends on a diverse, inclusive, and respectful environment.
