The position contains a lot of laboratory work and problem solving, independently as well as in collaboration with both national and international colleagues.

Following the qualitative overall assessment of skills and proficiency, applicants will be selected who are expected to have the best prerequisites for implementing and developing current tasks as well as contributing to a positive development of the scientific group.
