Laboratory Technician / Laboratory Manager

1790066987

We are a friendly and motivated laboratory with German and international researchers working to understand tumor biology and generate new models to help find treatments for children and adults with sarcoma. The candidate’s tasks will comprise lab management, cell culture, plasmid preps, support in various molecular biology techniques and training of new laboratory members on specifc tasks when required. Occasional mouse work may be required. Routine animal work is covered by a dedicated technician, with the successful candidate only expected to assist during periods of absence or in exceptional circumstances. While the position involves both administrative and laboratory work, there is some flexibility in the balance between these two areas, depending on the successful candidate’s interests. The candidate will work together with other members of the laboratory and will be trained in the various tasks.

Postdoc Position in Preclinical Development of Bicyclic Peptides for Nuclear Medicine

1791907768

The position is part of a long-term collaboration with the company Bicycle Therapeutics and covers the preclinical characterization of novel bicyclic peptides for clinical translation. This established and successful research platform includes the identification and evaluation of novel radiopharmaceuticals for positron emission tomography (PET) and radionuclide therapy. The relationship between DKFZ and Bicycle Therapeutics has expanded to include a more continuous and purpose-driven commitment towards advancing candidates towards the clinic. The current project aims at the preclinical development and clinical translation of novel radiolabeled, tumor-targeting bicyclic peptide conjugates for diagnostic and therapeutic application in nuclear medicine. The bicyclic peptide conjugates are synthesized by solid phase synthesis and modified by bioconjugation chemistry. Finally, the conjugates are labeled with several clinically relevant radioisotopes for in vitro and in vivo evaluation. Your task is to elaborate the scientific data within this work plan and to communicate the results with our collaboration partner.
