Final Theses
Our department regularly offers Bachelor and Master thesis projects. In addition, we welcome rotational students of the Master programs Molecular Life Science and Molecular Plant Science.
Furthermore, we successfully train graduate student and postdocs. Several of our lab Alumni have already obtained group leader positions or professorships.
Job offers for graduate student and postdocs can be found on the Welcome page of our department (news) and/or on the site of the University of Hamburg. Strong candidates, which can obtain independent funding, are encouraged to contact us directly.
