W2 professorship for “Tissue Aspects of Immunity and Inflammation”

The University of Lübeck (UzL) is seeking to fill the following position as soon as possible

W2 professorship for “Tissue Aspects of Immunity and Inflammation”

Institute of Systemic Inflammation Research

Contact person: Prof. Dr. Markus Hoffmann

Close cooperation with the research groups of the Cluster of Excellence “Precision Medicine in Chronic Inflammation” (PMI) at the University of Lübeck and the CAU in Kiel is being sought. The professorship will also be affiliated to the SFB1526 “Pathomechanisms of Antibody-Mediated Autoimmune Diseases”. The new professor will focus on tissue-specific aspects of chronic inflammatory diseases of autoimmune and infectious origin. The adaptation of the tissue to inflammatory triggers is to be broken down multidimensionally, pathomechanisms deciphered and used for therapeutic interventions. The aim is to share responsibility for teaching, for example in the Molecular Life Science, Infection Biology, Human Medicine and Nutritional Medicine degree programs. Experience in modern methods of multidimensional analysis at the cellular level (e.g. spatial transcriptomics, epigenetic analysis methods, organoid systems, metabolic analyses in single cells, modern microscopy, etc.) as well as in animal models is an advantage. A collaborative and interdisciplinary way of thinking and technical affinity are of great importance for this field of work.

Kiel University and the University of Lübeck are committed to increasing the proportion of female scientists in research and teaching and therefore strongly encourage suitably qualified women to apply. Women with equivalent suitability, aptitude and academic performance will be given priority.
The universities are committed to employing people with disabilities. Applications from severely disabled persons and persons of equal status will be given preferential consideration if they are suitable.
We expressly welcome applications from people with a migration background. We expressly waive the submission of photographs/application photos and therefore ask you to refrain from doing so.
The Higher Education Act of the State of Schleswig-Holstein obliges the Medical Faculty of Kiel University and the Medical Section of the University of Lübeck to cooperate closely with each other and with the University Medical Center Schleswig-Holstein, to form focal points and to coordinate these with each other.
