The TU Dres­den is one of ele­ven Ger­man uni­ver­si­ties that were iden­ti­fied as an “excel­lence uni­ver­sity”. TUD has about 36.500 stu­dents and almost 5319 employees, 507 pro­fes­sors among them, and, thus, is the lar­gest uni­ver­sity in Sax­ony, today.

Having been com­mit­ted to sci­en­ces and the engi­nee­ring before the reuni­fi­ca­tion of Ger­many, TU Dres­den now is a multi-disci­pline uni­ver­sity, also offe­ring huma­nities and social sci­en­ces as well as medi­cine.

The Clus­ter of Excel­lence PoL (https://physics-of-life.tu-dresden.de/en) is a cen­tral aca­de­mic unit and gro­wing inter­di­sci­pli­nary rese­arch cen­ter dedi­ca­ted to quan­ti­ta­tive bio­logy, bio­phy­sics and com­pu­ter sci­ence, which is fun­ded by the Ger­man Rese­arch Foun­da­tion (DFG) and offers a wide range of sup­port struc­tures, inclu­ding state-of-the-art light micro­scopy and advan­ced bio-image data sci­ence faci­li­ties.

Working field:

The Junior Rese­arch Group (https://physics-of-life.tu-dresden.de/en/research/core-groups/dye) seeks an inde­pen­dent, pas­sio­nate, and moti­va­ted post­doc to start a new pro­ject exami­ning the dyna­mic, self-orga­ni­zed beha­vi­ors of human gastro­in­tes­ti­nal cells in cul­ture. The pro­ject invol­ves using advan­ced light micro­scopy methods and bio­phy­si­cal tech­ni­ques to probe the mecha­nisms by which these cells orga­nize into par­ti­cu­lar collec­tive mor­pho­lo­gies. The suc­cess­ful app­li­cant will work clo­sely with our theory col­la­bo­ra­tors at the TU-Dres­den and MPI-PKS.
