Über uns

Laboratory research in our aquarium facilities, combined with field research on coral reefs is looking at phase shifts from coral dominated reefs to alternate states dominated by algae, soft corals or sponges. By applying metabolomics and natural products chemistry techniques to identify, characterize and quantify natural products we aim to identify bioactive compounds that allow these alternate organisms to become the dominating organisms

Ihre Aufgaben

We are seeking a motivated postdoctoral candidate with an academic university degree (master or equivalent) and a Ph D in either Biology, Chemistry, Marine Environmental Science or related research field to join our team. The successful candidate will contribute to our ongoing scientific efforts and will have access to our large collection of tropical and deep-sea macro and microorganisms to discover potential new bioactive marine natural products. In addition, the candidate should have a strong background and extensive experience in marine natural products research, especially in running and maintaining high resolution mass spectrometers. The candidate will be joining a team of chemical and microbial ecologists, chemists and microbiologist at the ICBM in Wilhelmshaven. Working place is the ICBM in Wilhelmshaven.
