Are you interested in investigating basic mechanisms in splicing regulation and gene expression?

Our research group was launched in September 2024 and is hosted at the Institute of Molecular Infection Biology at the University of Würzburg. We offer a nice working place in a multicultural and dynamic academic environment. We are generally interested in talented and curious team members at any level with a background in molecular biology, genetics, and/or biochemistry and a strong interest in RNA biology. 

Bachelor and Master students (both from JMU  & international) interested in an internship or thesis are welcome to get in touch about possibilities. Include a short motivation and prior research and/or course experience as well as the time frame for when you are interested. Please contact Irene early enough (>6 months) as we are a small lab and can only offer few spots at a time.

Spontaneous applications are welcome anytime for PhD/postdoc if you are able to procure your own funding, while fully-funded positions are advertised below when available. You can find e.g. a list of postdoc fellowships here or here (and I can obviously support you if you identify an opportunity).

If you are interested in joining our team or want to request more information, email irene[dot]beusch[at]uni-wuerzburg.de. Please include your CV, a cover letter with a brief description of your previous experience and motivation for joining the lab as well as the contacts for two/three academic references.

A must-read for students planning to apply for a position in the lab: How to Pick a Graduate Advisor

!We are currently recruiting a TA (lab tech)!

TA Position (f/m/d)

We have an open position for a TA (Technische Assistenz) to support the lab not only at the experimental level but also with organisational tasks. We are looking for a candidate that is exited about research and would like to join a young and dynamic lab.

The successful candidate should be familiar with general methods in molecular biology, biochemistry and/or cell biology. More information can be found here.

Please get in touch about possibilities. | Interessenten sind eingeladen, sich nach Möglichkeiten zu erkundigen.
