Post-doc position (f/m/d) in the field of antiviral immunology

Jobs


In a DFG-funded project on infection of the liver with hepatitis B viruses, we are characterizing the immune determinants for control of infection vs failure to control of infection. The focus of the project is on virus-specific CD8 T cells and the local hepatic regulation of their effector functions through environmental and cytokine-induced signals. The AG Wohlleber is looking for a Post-doctoral researcher to investigate the regulation and dynamics of CD8 T cell immunity and identify mechanisms or pathways that will decide whether an HBV infection will develop into acute or chronic infection.

OPEN POSITION for a postdoctoral fellow in the research group of Ralf Bartenschlager at Heidelberg University

Jobs


The Bartenschlager group is studying the interaction between plus-strand RNA viruses such as Dengue and Zika virus, SARS-CoV-2 and Hepatitis C virus and their host cells. One major focus is the cell biology underlying virus – host cell interactions aiming to understand how viruses reprogram cells for robust viral replication with the goal to identify possible drug targets for antiviral therapy.

OPEN POSITION for a PhD student "Dynamics of hepatitis B virus morphogenesis and its alterations during persistent infection"

Jobs




An open position for a PhD student to analyse the dynamics of hepatitis B virus morphogenesis and its alterations during persistent infection is offered in the Department of Infectious Diseases, Molecular Virology in Heidelberg. We propose that HBV particles are subject to defined ultrastructural dynamics with a series of thermodynamically driven, temporally and spatially regulated events during particle morphogenesis. In this project, we aim at a detailed characterization of nucleocapsids containing the authentic replication complex by biochemical and structural biology methods in the frame of the TRR179.
