Postdoctoral/Research Associate positions are available in the areas of tumor biology and cardiovascular biology to study the role of R-Ras in angiogenesis, atherosclerosis, hypertension, and other problems associated with vascular abnormalities. R-Ras is a unique Ras homolog that regulates endothelial cells, vascular smooth muscle cells, and pericytes during vascular remodeling. Previous findings from this laboratory on tumor angiogenesis and intimal smooth muscle hyperplasia are described in Nature Medicine 2005, Dec;11(12):1346-50. The prospective candidates will continue this study at the new facility of The Burnham Institute in Orlando, Florida.

Candidate must have a strong background in at least one of the following areas: tumor biology, vascular biology, cell biology, protein chemistry, molecular biology, and/or transcriptional/post-transcriptional gene regulation. Motivated candidates should send a description of research interest and experience as well as curriculum vitae. Please send PDF or Word files by e-mail to:

The Max-Planck-Institute for Molecular Biomedicine has several openings for Postdoctoral Research Scientists in the Department Tissue Morphogenesis (Director Prof. Ralf H. Adams)

Blood vessels play essential roles in vertebrate organisms and are also directly involved in a range of disease conditions such as cancer. We are studying the signaling processes controlling the angiogenic growth of the vasculature, the interactions between the different cell types forming the vessel wall and the communication between blood vessels and the surrounding tissues. Technical approaches include genetic studies in mouse or zebrafish, confocal and time-lapse microscopy, immunohistochemistry, cell/tissue culture, biochemistry, molecular biology and bioinformatics.

The Max-Planck Institute for Molecular Biomedicine (http://www.mpi-muenster.mpg.de/indexe.shtm) offers an excellent research environment with strong local links to the Center for Molecular Biology of Inflammation (http://zmbe.uni-muenster.de/center/centerindex.htm) and the University of Muenster (http://www.uni-muenster.de/en/index.html). Service facilities for Fluorescence Activated Cell Sorting, electron microscopy, research animal unit and the production of genetically modified mice provide core support.

We invite applications by enthusiastic, committed and talented prospective postdoctoral fellows who wish to join our new department. Postdoctoral fellowships are fix-term appointments for initially two or three years with the possibility of extension. The institute offers a very international environment so that knowledge in the German language is not essential.

Please send your application (quoting reference no. 05-2008), CV and the names of 2-3 referees via email to:
