Postdoctoral Scientist in Life Sciences

Employer: Luedtke Lab, University of Zurich

Location: Europe

Salary: Up to $75,000 per year

We are searching for a postdoctoral candidate with extensive experience in cell biology, fluorescence microscopy and flow cytometry to lead an ambitious new project using fluorescent probes to understand changes in drug metabolism resulting from mycoplasma infections in leukemia patients. The candidate will have the opportunity to collaborate with chemists and clinicians interested in understanding the patient-by-patient variability in clinical outcomes following standardized chemotherapeutic treatments. This project therefore has broad implications in personalized medicine and the development of new medical diagnostics.  

An ideal candidate will have a PhD in life sciences or related field, a proven track record of productivity, and the ability to communicate with chemists, biologists and medical doctors in a highly interdisciplinary environment.

The Luedtke laboratory is located at the University of Zurich and is equipped with its own cell culture facilities and access to outstanding microscopy and flow cytometry core facilities.
