CBBS-Postdoctoral Network

The Center for Behavioral Brain Sciences (CBBS) Magdeburg announces a call for 4 postdoctoral positions within the newly founded CBBS Postdoctoral Network funded by the Leibniz Association.
Excellent young scientists up to 4 years after obtaining their doctoral degree may apply. Applications are invited across the whole range of neuroscientific research of the CBBS. All applicants must provide a written commitment from a Magdeburg host lab headed by a CBBS member, which will provide cofinancing of the project. A list of CBBS members and labs participating in this program is available at www.cbbs.eu and here:

• Oliver Stork & Mario Engelmann
• Markus Ullsperger
• Volkmar Leßmann 
• Gerhard Jocham
• Stefan Pollmann
• Bertram Gerber  
• Markus Fendt
• Renato Frischknecht & Constanze Seidenbecher
• Anna Fejtová
• Michael Brosch
• Thomas Wolbers
• Schott & Krauel

The appointees will benefit from the postdoctoral network providing a program for training and education of postdoctoral researchers with a KAP (knowledge, attitude, practice) assessment center to individually coach its members. Further coaching will be focused on translational aspects of their work to raise awareness for this important issue and to provide knowledge about legal and administrative issues of patenting, licensing or spin-off creation as well as outreach to the academic and social community. The CBBS offers excellent working conditions in Magdeburg as one of Germany’s leading centers for Neurobiology and Brain Sciences.

The primary criterion for appointment will be academic excellence, but also originality of the proposal.

The positions are available from Fall 2015 for two years.
