Additional Info:
Atrial fibrillation is the most common form of cardiac arrhythmia. The most effective treatment is atrial ablation - an invasive procedure. However atrial fibrillation may still recur. The goal of the SysAFib project is to understand and model the risk of recurrence using an integrated systems medicine approach and to provide an evidence-based decision support system for the treatment of atrial fibrillation. The SysAFib consortium is composed of clinical, scientific and experimental experts, located at clinical centers, research institutes and universities in Norway, France, the Netherlands, Switzerland and Germany. Our Offer: At the Helmholtz Zentrum München, you can contribute together with leading researchers to the investigation of the development, prevention and treatment of environmental diseases such as diabetes, chronic lung diseases and allergies. In order to further promote your professional development, we offer extensive and targeted research training and career programmes. We support the reconciliation between work and private life with flexible working time models, occupational health management, day care facility for children, a childcare subsidy, Elder Care, as well as other counseling and support services. Remuneration and benefits are in accordance with the collective agreement for the public service (TV EntgO Bund). The position is initially limited to two years. The activity involves special knowledge and experience specific to own scientific skills. As a holder of the Total E-Quality Award, we promote equality of opportunity. In order to increase the proportion of women in management positions, we would be pleased to receive corresponding applications. Qualified applicants with physical disabilities will be given preference. We are looking forward to receiving your comprehensive online application until 22th of April 2018.
