Are you a highly motivated postdoctoral researcher eager to address fundamental biological questions while contributing to research with clear translational relevance? Are you excited by an environment where experimental and computational approaches meet? Here is your chance to contribute to science that makes a difference.


We invite you to join the Tomazou Group at St. Anna Children’s Cancer Research Institute (St. Anna CCRI) in Vienna. Our internationally connected and interdisciplinary research group integrates fundamental biology, stem cell engineering, and computational approaches to uncover unexplored biological mechanisms, with a strong focus on pediatric cancers.

Our work bridges basic discovery and translational applications, aiming to advance biological understanding while enabling future therapeutic strategies.

We welcome applicants with experimental (wet lab), computational, or hybrid expertise. Depending on your background and interests, you will have the opportunity to:

  • Develop and implement novel pediatric cancer models, including stem cell–based and disease‑relevant systems
  • Dissect unexplored biology of pediatric cancer including mechanobiology and post-transcriptional regulation
  • Employ and/or develop computational and data-driven approaches
  • Work at the interface of basic biology and translational research within a highly collaborative environment

With excellent infrastructure, strong mentoring, and an outstanding track record in competitive third-party funding (including ERC Consolidator, MSCA postdoctoral, and Boehringer Ingelheim Fonds fellowships), we offer an ideal environment for postdoctoral researchers aiming to develop scientific independence and build a strong international profile.

More information about the research group can be found here: Tomazou Group.

Your responsibilities

  • Conduct independent postdoctoral research aligned with the group’s scientific focus

  • Conceptualize, design, and carry out ambitious research projects

  • Provide creative and critical input to the development and refinement of research questions

  • Prepare manuscripts, present findings at international conferences, and apply for competitive fellowships

  • Supervise and mentor junior members of the team

  • Actively contribute to a collaborative and interdisciplinary research environment

Your profile

What you bring for this position:

  • PhD in molecular biology, cellular biology, cancer biology, computational biology or a related life science discipline

  • At least one first author publication

  • Demonstrated expertise in one or more of the following areas:

    • Molecular and cellular biology

    • Stem cell engineering

    • Translational research

    • Computational biology

    • Strong motivation to work in an interdisciplinary and international research environment

  • High level of scientific curiosity, persistence and commitment

  • Ability to independently drive complex research projects forward

  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills in English (German not required)

Our offer

Learning & Growth: Take advantage of seminars, trainings, and language courses to expand your skills

Academic Network: Benefit from close collaborations with leading national and international institutions

Nutritious Breaks: Enjoy subsidized lunches and fresh fruit baskets to keep you energized throughout the day
