Are you passionate about cell biology and eager to explore the fascinating world of centrioles? Prof. Elmar Schiebel at the Centre for Molecular Biology (ZMBH) at Heidelberg University invites applications for a PhD position focusing on centriole biogenesis.

About the Position:

The successful candidate will join Prof. Elmar Schiebel’s research group, renowned for its work on gamma-tubulin complexes, centrioles and centrosome function. This PhD project will investigate the molecular mechanisms underlying centriole biogenesis, with a focus on understanding how centrioles duplicate and assemble microtubules during formation. The research will combine advanced microscopy techniques, biochemistry, and genetic tools to unravel the complexities of centriole assembly and function and how this can lead to disease.

Qualifications:

A Master’s degree or equival...
