Jobs in Structural Biology and Related Fields


Professorship (W 2) of Structural Bioinformatics


University of Regensburg, Regensburg, Germany
Application deadline: 14 May 2021


The Faculty of Biology and Pre-Clinical Medicine at the Regensburg Center for Biochemistry invites applications for a professorship of structural bioinformatics (grade W 2, civil servant for life) to be appointed as soon as possible. The professorship shall complement the focus of the Faculty and the Regensburg Center for Biochemistry in the field of structural biology through the bioinformatic analysis of cellular macromolecules. In addition, a strengthening of the existing collaborative research areas of the faculty is desirable, in particular of the SFB 960. The call for applications is aimed at highly qualified scientists with an excellent publication record and third-party funding. The field of bioinformatics is to be represented in teaching as part of the bachelor's and master's degrees in biology and biochemistry.

Prerequisites for taking up the position are alongside the general conditions from public sector employment law, a completed university degree, pedagogic suitability, and particular aptitude for academic work, generally shown by a doctoral degree, as well as additional scientific achievements proven by a habilitation or equivalent scientific achievements, which can also be performed outside the university area, or as part of a junior professorship. 

Universität Regensburg is particularly committed to reconciling family and working life. To fulfill the equality directive and increase the number of female professors, we explicitly encourage applications from qualified women.

In case of essentially similar suitability, applicants with severe disabilities will be preferentially selected. The prerequisites for appointment under civil servant law are based on the provisions of the Bavarian Public Service Code (BayBG) and the Bavarian University Staff Act (BayHSchPG). The age limit of Art. 10 Para. 3 BayHSchPG must be observed.

Applications with the usual documents (curriculum vitae, certificates, certificates, list of publications with the most important offprints, research plan, teaching concept) are to be sent electronically by May 3, 2021 to the dean of the Faculty of Biology and Pre-Clinical Medicine (gunter.meister@ur.de) of Regensburg University, D-93040 Regensburg.
