Proven experience in data acquisition and analysis of advanced microscopy imaging techniques (e.g. confocal microscopy, TIRF, FRET, STORM, DNA-PAINT) is required. The Sánchez Lab at the European Institute for Molecular Imaging (EIMI) is seeking to fill a position limited to two years at the earliest starting opportunity. The European Institute for Molecular Imaging (EIMI) is an interdisciplinary institute within the University of Münster developing imaging methods allowing to visualize molecular processes inside organisms, tissues and cells. With the help of imaging, we perform cutting-edge research in vascular, inflammatory, infectious, neurodegenerative diseases, and cancer. The EIMI is located in the Multiscale Imaging Center (MIC), which hosts research groups from our University combining a broad range of state-of-the-art imaging technologies for the investigation of biomedical questions in super-resolution microscopy. We are interested in how receptors sense the environment and respond generating selective responses. We will focus on an undervalued receptor family, plexins. These receptors are involved in neuronal development, but also in shaping the cardiovascular, musculoskeletal systems and kidney. Further, plexins regulate immune responses and cancer, thus becoming an attractive drug target. The 2-year position is funded by an Emmy Noether DFG grant and aims to combine single-molecule localization methods and cell biology to decipher the stoichiometry and dynamics of plexin receptors in living cells, the role of ligand binding and ligand-independent mechanosensing. The University Hospital of Münster is one of the leading hospitals in Germany. Albert-Schweitzer-Campus 1, 48149 Münster (GPS: 7.598, 51.96) Erste (1-2 J.)
