We are Helmholtz Munich. In a rapidly changing world we discover breakthrough solutions for better health.

Our research is focused within the areas of metabolic health/diabetes, environmental health, molecular targets and therapies, cell programming and repair, bioengineering, and computational health. Through this research, we build the foundations for medical innovation. Together with our partners, we seek to accelerate the transfer of our research, so that laboratory ideas can reach society and improve people's quality of life at the fastest rate possible.

Join us and use your talents and passion as we work together to drive forward scientific progress.

The primary research goal of the Institute of Diabetes Research and Metabolie Diseases (IDM) is the individualized prediction of diabetes risk and diabetes prevention and its personalized therapy. The institute is located in Tübingen.
At the Institute for Diabetes Research and Metabolic Diseases (IDM) and the German Center for Diabetes Research (DZD e. V.), located in Tübingen, we are seeking a Bioinformatician / Data Scientist (f/m/x).

The main research focus is on bioinformatic analysis in the context of clinical studies.

The topics include genetic/epigenetic analyses, omics approaches, microbiome, organ (brain, liver, heart, pancreas, fat cell, kidney) and organ crosstalk analyses and data from imaging processes, primarily human data based on clinical research.

One focus in particular is the establishment of these approaches for the valid characterization of sub-phenotypes in prediabetes. The individual working groups of the IDM should be supported in statistical and data-analytical questions.

The place of work is in the Prevention department (Head:
Prof. Dr. med. Andreas Birkenfeld). The position provides access to unique clinical data.

Recent major findings are the description of sub-phenotypes in Prediabetes, which led to new clinical studies, and wereported mechanisms of remission in prediabetes.

Depending on the expertise of the applicant, we will evaluate individual structures for the integration in the IDM.
