Beschreibung:

The Medical University of Vienna (MedUni Vienna) with almost 8,000 students
and 5.500 employees is one of the largest medical training and research facili-
ties in Europe. For the Department of Medicine I, Division of Hematology and
Hemostaseology, „Staber laboratory“, we are recruiting a highly-motivated

Research Technician in  precision medicine


The Project:
Due to the heterogeneity of hematological malignancies, it is very difficult to
identify effective therapies, especially once a cancer has become resistant to
standard treatments. To identify personalized resistance-breaking therapies
in hematologic cancers we aim to investigate the feasibility and clinical impact
of next-generation functional drug screening (ngFDS) measured at single-cell
resolution and next generation sequencing (NGS) of patient material. Ex vivo
and clinical drug responses will be rigorously tracked and matched to other
biomarkers and patients’ genomics, to suggest a mechanism of action.
The successful candidate will work closely with PhD students, research post-
docs and medical doctors at the Division of Hematology (MedUni Vienna) and
collaborating institutes such as the Center of Molecular Medicine (CeMM) to
investigate ways to overcome drug resistance in hematological malignancies.
Techniques include tissue preparation, molecular and functional characteriza-
tion of tumors, and database management.


Requirements:
• Degree in either biology or chemistry (MTA, CTA, B.Sc., M.Sc., Mag., DI)
• Previous experience with database software
• Fluent written and spoken English. Knowledge of the German language is helpful
• Provide a motivation letter
• Provide a detailed curriculum vitae
• Provide a letter of recommendation
• Excellent work ethic, very good communication skills and ability to work in a team in an international environment
• High accuracy, reliability and excellent interpersonal and organizational skills
