Job Description:
The position A postdoc position funded by an ERC Consolidator grant is available in theVan Attikum laboratory at the Leiden University Medical Center (LUMC; Leiden, the Netherlands). As a postdoc you will study how chromatin remodeling enzymes counteract DNA strand breaks and replication stress in order to prevent genomic instability in human cells. The research will encompass a cross-disciplinary approach that combines novel and cutting-edge genomics with bioinformatics, genetics, biochemistry and high-resolution microscopy. Your profile You are an extremely motivated and dedicated researcher who: • holds a PhD in cell biology, molecular genetics or related field • has experience with research on DNA damage repair, particularly replication stress responses • possesses excellent skills in genetics, molecular biology, biochemistry and microscopy techniques • has experience with replication-related assays (e.g. DNA combing and iPOND) • knows how to use the CRISP/CAS9 technology • published at least two first author papers in high-impact journals • has outstanding written and oral communication skills What we offer You will be employed on the basis of a 36-hour week. Appointment is for two years and may possibly be extended.
