To further strengthen our team, we are looking for a PostDoc or PhD student, ideally with initial background in preclinical cancer research and / or preclinical radiation research.

Radiation therapy is an important option in today’s cancer treatment. To increase the effectiveness of this treatment modality, it becomes usually combined with other modalities such as chemotherapy or immune therapy. Prerequisites for developing such multi-modality regimens are their aforegoing preclinical evaluation and, ideally, identification of markers (biomarkers) of prognostic or predictive values. Our research group as part of the Radiation Oncology Department works on both of these aspects.
