Wartung!
Confluence wird am Montag, den 23.09.2024, zwischen 11:30 Uhr und 12:30 Uhr kurzzeitig nicht zur Verfügung stehen. Der Grund dafür sind Wartungsarbeiten an der IT-Infrastruktur des ZIM.
The Marie-Curie ITN "PoLiMeR" (Polymers in the Liver: Metabolism and Regulation) has been positively evaluated and the official project start is envisaged in October 2018.The project is coordinated by Prof. Barbara Bakker, University of Groningen.
The interdisciplinary project will study metabolic diseases related to disorders in carbohydrate and fatty acid metabolism. The consortium includes clinicians, experimental biologists, and theoretical biologists, who will form a deeply collaborative consortium to understand mechanisms of various energy metabolism-related disorders.
While not yet officially advertised, we will be seeking outstanding candidates for two Early Stage Researchers (ESRs). The successful candidates will be developing mathematical models to study carbohydrate polymer metabolism in humans, and in particular to explain the causal effects of enzymatic disorders on human health. The project will be carried out in close collaboration with experimental and clinical partners within PoLiMeR.
For ITNs, successful candidates must fulfil the mobility criteria defined by the European Commission:
At the time of recruitment by the host organisation, researchers must not have resided or carried out their main activity (work, studies, etc.) in the country of their host organisation for more than 12 months in the 3 years immediately prior to the reference date.
Specifically, for the ESRs to be recruited at the Heinrich-Heine University, this means that they cannot have lived/worked for more than 12 months in Germany during the 3 years prior to the recruitment date. The recruitment is envisaged for April 2019.
However, the situation may change in the future. People interested in working with us are invited any time to contact us and send motivation letters and CVs.
We also support candidates who wish to acquire their own funding.
