[ETH Diversity] Ausschreibung - Assistant Professor of Tissue Damage and Repair

[Krsmanovic Katarina (Prs)]

Assistant Professor of Tissue Damage and Repair 

 

The Department of Biology (www.biol.ethz.ch <https://biol.ethz.ch/en/> ) at
ETH Zurich invites applications for the above-mentioned position. 

 

The assistant professorship is expected to develop a world-leading research
program in tissue repair with a focus on mechanistic cellular and molecular
studies. The successful candidate should integrate a variety of experimental
approaches to gain insight into the mechanisms underlying the repair of
injured tissues after various types of insults. 

Topics/approaches may include analysis of (i) the heterogeneity of
injured/healing tissues and the corresponding healing processes, (ii) the
interaction of different resident and invading immune cell types, (iii) the
signalling events that drive regeneration versus repair, (iv) the role of
cell-matrix interactions in repair, (v) the influence of environment and
stress factors (including mechanical factors, infection, toxins, UV
irradiation) on the healing response, (vi) genetic and epigenetic mechanisms
driving the response of tissues to injury, (vii) the role of the microbiome
in the control of tissue repair and regeneration, (viii) the development of
innovative approaches and technologies for the analysis of tissue
repair/regeneration (e.g. advanced in vivo imaging) and the improvement of
the repair process based on biological/biomechanical information. Candidates
with an interest in translating fundamental understandings into potential
therapeutic applications are particularly encouraged to apply. 

 

At the assistant professor level, commitment to teaching and the ability to
lead a research group are expected. She or he will engage and contribute to
the molecular health sciences teaching programme at the undergraduate and
graduate levels (teaching may be in German or English). Assistant
professorships have been established to promote the careers of young
scientists. The initial appointment is for four years with the possibility
of renewal for a three-year period.

Applications should include a curriculum vitae, a list of publications, a
statement of future research and teaching interests, a description of the
leadership philosophy and a description of the three most important
achievements. The letter of application should be addressed to the President
of ETH Zurich, Prof. Dr. Joël Mesot. The closing date for applications is 15
July 2022. ETH Zurich is an equal opportunity and family friendly employer,
values diversity, strives to increase the number of women professors, and is
responsive to the needs of dual career couples.
