DKFZ Postdoctoral Fellowships
You can find more general information about the fellowship scheme, eligibility criteria and requirements on the DKFZ Postdoctoral Fellowships pages.
If you have a specific research interest and feel that a certain scientist or a certain group would fit for this purpose, then you may contact the head of the research division or group directly, at any time. A first contact should be established as early as possible since the research plan as well as project funding has to be discussed. In principle, PostDoc positions can be financed through institutional funding, third part funding or your own stipend.
