Home Office Options

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. We particularly excel in the fields of basic research, bioengineering, artificial intelligence, and technological development.

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.

This is what drives us. Why not join us and make a difference?

The Institute of Functional Epigenetics (IFE) focuses on understanding the epigenetic mechanisms whereby cells and organisms integrate metabolic signals, establish cellular memory, and regulate plasticity. We leverage this knowledge to identify new epigenetic pathways for drug discovery. We use cutting-edge methods (multi-omics, single cell, live cell imaging, modelling, biochemistry as well as various developmental, stem cell and cell biology systems) to predict, observe, and manipulate epigenetic processes.

The Schneider group is recruiting a Postdoc (f/m/x) to work on the interphase between chromatin biochemistry, epigenetics, RNA biology and epitranscriptomics. The applicant should have experience in the epigenetics and/or chromatin field, a good publication record and be motivated to shape her/his own project. The successful candidate will address a central question in epigenetics: how do epigenetic mechanisms control gene expression programs in single cells and how can they be used to increase adaptation upon environmental stimuli, particularly in stem cells but also during cellular differentiation.

Prof. Matthias Tschöp (Dr. Med., Dr. hc.)

CEO of Helmholtz Munich:

We believe that excellent research requires a range of different perspectives. Diverse teams reach better solutions and are more innovative in their research topics.

Establishing our Diversity Management Strategy demonstrates our commitment to ensuring an appreciative company culture based on mutual respect. We are also implementing diversity-sensitive processes throughout our whole organization.

Your tasks

The applicant will implement a combination of approaches, including different “omics” approaches and the development of novel single cell technologies. He/she will benefit from a vibrant scientific environment as well as the strong epigenetics, chromatin and AI communities on campus and in the Munich area.
