The CRTD consists of 25 international research groups working in the field of regeneration across multiple organ systems and diseases, including neural injury and neurodegenerative diseases, hematology, diabetes, and bone regeneration. The CRTD explores the capacity for regeneration of the human body and aims to develop novel regenerative therapies. In order to develop such therapies, the research institute explores mechanisms of tissue repair and stem cell physiology in vivo and in vitro, using different animal models (zebrafish, mouse axolotl). For TUD Dresden University of Technology, diversity is an essential feature and a quality criterion of an excellent university. Accordingly, we welcome all applicants who would like to commit themselves, their achievements and productivity to the success of the whole institution.
At the Center for Regenerative Therapies Dresden (CRTD), an institute of the Center for Molecular and Cellular Bioengineering (CMCB), the newly established Junior Research Group led by Dr. Darja Andreev, focusing on Tissue Regeneration and Resolution of Inflammation, offers a position as
Research Associate / Postdoc (m/f/x)
(subject to personal qualification employees are remunerated according to salary group E 13 TV-L)
starting as soon as possible. The position is initially limited to 3 years. The period of employment is governed by the Fixed Term Research Contracts Act (Wissenschaftszeitvertragsgesetz - WissZeitVG). This position aims at obtaining further academic qualifications (usually habilitation thesis).
About the research group: Dr. Andreev's newly established research group is seeking a post-doctoral researcher at any level to explore mechanisms of bone tissue regeneration, focusing on osteoclast-mediated bone loss (Andreev et al., J Clin Invest. 2020; Andreev et al., Nat Commun. 2024), and resolution of inflammatory arthritis, with an emphasis on innate immune cells (Chen, Andreev et al., Nat Commun. 2016; Andreev, Liu et al., Ann Rheum Dis. 2021).
