Wymagania Obowiązkowe

Mandatory Requirements

PhD degree in Molecular Biology, Biochemistry, Neurobiology, or Biotechnology.
Advanced written and spoken proficiency in English.
Proven research track record demonstrated by peer-reviewed publications.
Ability to plan, execute, and supervise experimental work involving core molecular biology techniques (e.g. RNA/DNA extraction, RT-qPCR, Western blotting, cell culture and manipulation).
Willingness and ability to travel, exchange know-how, and present research internationally

Additional Requirements

The candidate must meet the requirements of the NCN project Regulations, in particular by obtaining their doctoral degree in the year of employment in the project or within 7 years prior to 1 January of the year of employment in the project.

This period may be extended by the time spent during that interval on long-term (over 90 days) documented sick leave or on rehabilitation benefits due to incapacity for work.

Additionally, it may be extended by the number of months spent on childcare-related leave granted under the Labour Code.

In the case of women, this period may also be extended by 18 months for each child born or adopted, if this method of accounting for breaks in the academic career is more favourable.
