PhD Student Posititon 

Research in the Department of Neuromorphology focuses on 
regeneration and reorganisation after neural injury. Current 
projects include investigation of the role of homeobox genes 
during the regeneration processes. The regulation of members of 
the LIM-type homeobox gene family has to be determinde in mouse 
and rat with semiquantitative PCR and IHC. Studies of Islet-1 
promoter and in vivo and in vitro antisense targeting shall give 
an insight of regulatory cascades. We are looking for a candidate 
with interests in molecular biology and with experience in 
meurobiology. Applicants should be highly motivated to work in a 
multidisciplinary enviroment.
