Genome Instability in Tumors

“Research for a life without cancer" is our mission at the German Cancer Research Center. We investigate how cancer develops, identify cancer risk factors and look for new cancer prevention strategies. We develop new methods with which tumors can be diagnosed more precisely and cancer patients can be treated more successfully. Every contribution counts – whether in research, administration or infrastructure. This is what makes our daily work so meaningful and exciting.

The Junior Research Group "Genome Instability in Tumors" works on genome instability, from basic research to translational applications.

To strengthen our international team, we are seeking for the next possible date a
