The Chair of Microbial Biochemistry at the Faculty of Medicine is looking for a
PhD position (m,f,x) for 3 years with 25,8895 hours per week (TV-L E 13)
The Microbial Biochemistry group is interested in the multifaceted biochemistry of microorganisms. Bacteria are not only the causative agent of many infectious diseases but also great model organisms to explore basic concepts of biology.
The successful applicant will work as a PhD candidate on a DFG-funded project. She or he will study the role of N-chloramines, a novel post-translational modification, in host-microbe interactions and chronic inflammation. The candidate will establish, synthesize, and use chemo-proteomic probes to detect and quantify N-chloramines in bacteria, mammalian cells and eventually patient samples. The successful applicant will become a member of the IGB (International Graduate School of Biosciences, https://www.biologie.ruhr-uni-bochum.de/promotion/index.html.en) or GSCB (Graduate School of Chemistry and Biochemistry, https://www.chemie.ruhr-uni-bochum.de/gscb/index.html.en).
