## **PhD Position in Comparative Genomics (m/f/d)**

### **(full time / part-time options available)**

The Hiller Lab at the Senckenberg Research Institute in Frankfurt, Germany has an opening for a PhD student to investigate the genomic basis of phenotypic differences in mammals.

**The Project**

The project aims at linking lifespan differences to genomic differences. The PhD student will capitalize on a number of high-quality genomes and a repertoire of comparative methods to trace genomic differences in genes and regulatory elements. The PhD student will work closely with other members of our lab and researchers from collaborating institutes.

**Your profile**

-         Master degree in genomics, bioinformatics, molecular biology, or a related area

-         Programming skills in a Linux environment, experience with shell scripts and Unix tools

-         Experience in comparative genomics is an advantage

**Our lab**

The mission of our lab is to understand how nature's fascinating phenotypic diversity has evolved and how it is encoded in the genome. Work in the lab includes sequencing and assembly of reference-quality genomes, genome alignment and gene annotation, development and application of comparative genomic methods to discover differences in genes and gene expression, and the use of statistical approaches to link phenotypic to genomic changes.

Our lab is part of the Senckenberg Research Society ([https://www.senckenberg.de/en/](https://www.senckenberg.de/en/)), and is based near the city center of Frankfurt am Main, Germany. Senckenberg provides access to cutting-edge computational (large HPC clusters, genome browser) and lab infrastructure to sequence and analyze genomes. English is the working language in our lab.

**We offer**

-         Flexible working hours - opportunities for mobile working - leave of absence due to family reasons (certified by “auditberufundfamilie”) - parent-child office - annual special payment - company pension scheme - Senckenberg badge for free entry in museums in Frankfurt. - leave of 30 days/year

-         Frankfurt is a vibrant and highly international city at the heart of Europe that combines a skyscraper skyline with ample parks and green areas. The Economist 2022 index ranked Frankfurt among the top 10 most livable cities worldwide.

**Place of employment:           Frankfurt am Main, Germany**

**Working hours:                     Full-time (40 hours/week) / part-time options are available**

**Type of contract:                   3 year contract**

**Start date:                              early 2025**
