Professorship in Predicting Molecular Determinants of Health-Disease Transitions

Charité – Universitätsmedizin Berlin invites applications for a fixed-term W2 professorship focused on predicting and identifying molecular determinants of health-disease transitions within the Cluster of Excellence ImmunoPreCept. The successful candidate will drive an innovative research program investigating tissue-immune networks, chronic inflammatory conditions, and early disease interception using state-of-the-art single-cell, spatial, and AI-driven technologies. Responsibilities include building collaborative networks across Berlin's premier research institutions, teaching, and securing external funding. Candidates are expected to possess an outstanding academic track record in immunology or biomedical research along with a completed doctoral degree and postdoctoral qualifications.

• Establish an independent and internationally competitive research program focused on molecular determinants of health-disease transitions and immune-mediated mechanisms.
• Integrate state-of-the-art single-cell, spatial omics, and AI-driven approaches into basic and clinical research frameworks.
• Collaborate closely with partner institutions within the Berlin life science ecosystem, including the Max Delbrück Center and Max Planck Institute for Molecular Genetics.
• Contribute to the teaching and mentoring activities of the medical faculty and ImmunoPreCept training programs.
• Secure external grant funding and actively participate in collaborative research initiatives.
• Mentor junior researchers, doctoral candidates, and postdoctoral fellows within the research group.
