Medizin jobs in Germany

The appointment, to be made as soon as possible, will be permanent with the legal status of a civil servant for life (Beamtenverhältnis auf Lebenszeit).

The research of the future group leader should focus on biotic interactions of plants and ideally also consider interactions with other organism groups (e.g. pathogens, symbionts, pollinators or herbivores). Methodologically, all scales and approaches of ecology are welcome, including functional ecology, population ecology, community ecology, biogeography, macroecology, global change ecology, landscape ecology, molecular ecology, coevolution and ecologically oriented areas of micro- and macroevolution. A hypothesis and theory-driven empirical research approach that includes field-based research, complementarity to existing research groups of the faculty within the area of organismic biology, and participation in the development of the faculty's newly created research cluster “Biotic Interactions in the Anthropocene” (https://go.ur.de/biotic-interactions) are desirable.

It is expected that the professorship will strengthen the teaching in botany and ecology within the faculty's BSc and teacher training programmes as well as in the two international MSc programmes Biology and Ecology, Evolution & Conservation (EEC).

The future professor will also act as scientific director of the Botanical Garden at the University of Regensburg.

In addition to the general requirements under civil service law, the requirements for appointment are, according to Art. 57 (1) of the Bavarian Higher Education Innovation Act (BayHIG), at least a completed university degree, pedagogical aptitude, special aptitude for scientific work, which is usually demonstrated by the quality of a doctorate, and on top of that further scientific achievements. The latter refer to a habilitation or equivalent scientific achievements, which may also have been obtained outside the university sector or within the framework of a junior professorship. The management of a junior research group constitutes an equivalent scientific achievement under the conditions specified in Art. 98 (10) sentence 5 BayHIG.

The University of Regensburg is particularly committed to promoting work-life balance (for more information, see https://www.uni-regensburg.de/universitaet/jobs-und-karriere/familien-service). To fulfill its equality mandate and increase the number of female professors, it expressly encourages qualified female academics to apply.

Severely disabled persons will be given preferential consideration if they are essentially equally qualified.

The civil service requirements for appointment are based on the provisions of the Bavarian Civil Service Act (BayBG) and the Bavarian Higher Education Innovation Act (BayHIG). The age limit specified in Art. 60 (3) BayHIG must be observed.

Applications with the usual documents (curriculum vitae, preferably without photo, certificates, documents, list of publications, overview of teaching experience and third-party funding, as well as a research and teaching concept) and the structured application form (https://www.uni-regensburg.de/biologie-vorklinische-medizin/fakultaet/informationen/offene-stellen) should preferably be sent electronically (berufungen.biologie@ur.de)

to the Dean of the Faculty of Biology and Preclinical Medicine at the University of Regensburg, Prof. Dr. Till Rudack.
