Working at Charité
The research building Si-M is an innovative joint research initiative of Charité – Universitätsmedizin Berlin and Technische Universität Berlin. Its goal is to develop human-relevant models for the simulation of health and disease processes. Within Si-M, the Cytometry Platform plays a central role in the phenotypic and functional characterization of cells across a range of highly complex experimental setups. We offer a dynamic and interdisciplinary research environment equipped with state-of-the-art infrastructure, enabling close collaboration with leading scientists across multiple disciplines. The position provides the opportunity to establish and advanced innovative cytometry technologies in a cutting-edge research setting. We actively support professional development and career progression through continuing education opportunities. Flexible working hours and family-friendly policies ensure a supportive work-life balance.
Overview of the position
A central aspect of Si-M’s research agenda is the development, optimization, and application of human model systems to simulate physiological and pathophysiological processes of human diseases. Cytometric analysis and cell isolation technologies form a core component of Si-M’s scientific strategy. The Cytometry Platform plays a pivotal role in the deep phenotypic and functional characterization of human cells in complex, model-based experimental systems. Due to the technological complexity and scientific relevance of this platform, its successful operation requires a highly qualified expert with technical excellence and strategic vision.
The position includes responsibility for the structured training and support of users in advanced cytometry techniques, while also contributing to the development and implementation of novel workflows at the interface of cytometry, single-cell genomics, organoid research, and immunology. This also involves the application and integration of innovative approaches to continuously advance the platform at the highest technological and scientific level.
