Doctoral Researcher in Molecular Reproductive Physiology | Promotion (m/w/d)

Job Summary

This Doctoral Researcher position focuses on cutting-edge translational research within Molecular Reproductive Physiology, aiming to develop novel non-hormonal male contraceptives. The role involves conducting fundamental research into male reproductive functions, specifically investigating the pharmacological effects of new molecules on sperm by analyzing ion channel function. Day-to-day activities include performing electrophysiological recordings of cells and utilizing fluorescence-based methods, such as Ca2+ and membrane potential dyes, for detailed analysis of ion channel function. Candidates must hold a completed Master's degree in Biology, Biochemistry, Pharmacy, Biomedicine, or a related life science field, possess basic knowledge of electrophysiology and ion channels, and demonstrate very strong English communication skills. This position offers the opportunity to contribute to significant research innovation in an interdisciplinary and international team environment.
