YOUR TASKS

You will join the Laboratory of Microbiology within the Department of Biochemistry and Microbiology to contribute to a short-term research project focused on the functional characterization of bacterial type III secretion system (T3SS) effector biology.

Your tasks will include:

Performing functional validation of bacterial T3SS effector biology using molecular microbiology, mammalian infection models and biochemical approaches.
Performing quantitative fluorescence and confocal microscopy to investigate bacterial infection processes and host cell responses.
Conducting quantitative image analysis and integrating microscopy findings with previously generated proteomics datasets.
Contributing to the completion of experimental validation required for the interpretation and publication of ongoing research projects.
Assisting in data analysis, interpretation of results and preparation of scientific manuscripts.

WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR

You hold a Master's degree in Biomedicine, Biomedical Sciences or a closely related discipline.
You have research experience with mammalian cell culture and bacterial infection models.
You have hands-on experience with quantitative fluorescence/confocal microscopy and image analysis (e.g. FIJI/ImageJ).
You have experience with molecular biology and standard biochemical techniques, including cloning and Western blotting.
Experience with the analysis and interpretation of quantitative proteomics datasets is considered an important asset.
You have experience with R and/or Python for quantitative biological data analysis.
Previous research experience in bacterial virulence, host–pathogen interactions or intracellular bacterial infection biology is essential.
Because of the short duration of the project, you are able to rapidly integrate into an ongoing research programme and independently execute experimental protocols.
You have excellent communication skills in English and enjoy working in an interdisciplinary research environment.

WHAT WE CAN OFFER YOU

We offer you a contract of definite duration for the period from 1 October 2026 until 31 December 2026.
Your contract will start on 1/10/2026.
Your remuneration will be determined by salary scale WM1 to WM4 (if you hold a Master’s degree) or salary scale PD1 to PD4 (if you hold a doctorate). Click here for more information about our salary scales.
