- and cancer pathways. A multitude of DNA-repair pathways ensure genomic integrity in a healthy cell. Disbalances or dysfunctionalities in these pathways can lead to genomic instability, which is a central contributor to carcinogenesis and ageing. Our research aims to provide a better understanding of the relationship between genome maintenance, ageing, and cancer, in an interdisciplinary approach. We dissect defects in DNA repair pathways in patients with genome instability syndromes and in patients suffering from mantle cell lymphoma, a mature B-cell lymphoma typically affecting the elderly. For patients suffering from mantle-cell lymphoma, mechanism-based therapies are scarce with poor overall treatment outcome. You will investigate the mechanisms underlying this disease and potential therapeutic approaches with a wide range of tools involving biochemistry, cell biology, and computational biology, and transfer these findings to modern genetically engineered and patient-derived mouse models. Your tasks include, but are not limited to, multimodal phenotyping of novel murine MCL in vivo models (IHC, FACS, NGS techniques), functional validation in MCL in vitro models (cell culture, spheroid culture) and integrative analyses with multi-omic data from large MCL patient cohorts.
We seek a highly motivated and talented scientist to join our enthusiastic and collaborative team in an outstanding scientific environment to take part in our exciting research.
