The position is generally suitable for candidates seeking part-time employment. Please indicate your request in your application.</p>\n\n\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 20px; font-family: san-serif;\"><b>Tasks:</b> The interdisciplinary project aims to understanding the acto-myosin cooperativity and regulation underlying gliding motility of diatoms within the scientific context of the Cluster of Excellence Physics of Life (PoL). Diatoms are unicellular eukaryotic microalgae found in almost all aquatic ecosystems. Intriguingly, pennate raphid diatoms are able to adhere to and move across almost any substratum with high velocities (up to 10 µm/s and higher) and rapid changes in the directionality. This research project will include designing strategies to quantify and describe the movement of diatoms using optical microscopy with high spatial and temporal resolution; measuring and applying controlled forces, e.g. with optical or magnetic tweezers; investigating the influence of physical and chemical parameters of the environment on the behavior of gliding; generating and phenotypical characterizing targeted mutant cell lines; scientific documentation, evaluation and publication of the experimental results; supervision of students in the context of the underlying research in the project; active participation in scientific conferences and presentation of own research work.</p>\n\n\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 20px; font-family: san-serif;\"><b>Requirements:</b> The successful candidate needs to have a university degree (MSc or equivalent) and, if applicable, an additional PhD degree, preferably in the fields physics, biophysics, molecular biotechnology or related fields. Prior experience in optical microscopy and quantitative image processing is highly desired but not essential. The candidate will work with an interdisciplinary team of cell biologists, physicists, chemists and computer scientists. Strong writing skills with a proven track record of successful research are essential. Excellent communication skills in English are necessary as this is the colloquial language at the research center.</p>\n\n\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 20px; font-family: san-serif;\">The B CUBE (www.tu-dresden.de/bcube) is an interdisciplinary research center focusing on research and education in the areas of Bioprospecting, BioNano Tools and Biomimetic Materials.
