Host-Pathogen Interactions / Inflammation / Immunity
Two postdoctoral research positions are available for highly motivated candidates to investigate inflammation and innate immunity in the skin and mucosal tissues during viral infections and chronic/recurring diseases. Experimental models will include in vitro assays, conventional and organoid cell cultures, and knockout/transgenic mice. The studies aim to: 1) identify novel extra- and intracellular inflammatory and/or viral restriction mechanisms, 2) determine how these processes are regulated to maintain homeostasis, and 3) establish connections to human diseases, including cancer and chronic inflammatory conditions, when the pathways are dysregulated.
Project 1 will focus on viral infections.
Project 2 will examine connections between inflammation and cancer.
Requirements: A recent Ph.D. in biochemistry, cell biology, immunology, microbiology and/or virology. Peer-reviewed publications in the field(s) of immunology, virology and/or signal transduction. Training in molecular biology, biochemistry, immunology, signal transduction, cell culture methods, and/or mouse models of disease. Excellent written and oral communication skills in English. Must be willing and able to handle mice and infectious materials.
The positions are available immediately and will only remain open until suitable candidates are identified. Applicants should apply early as openings may close early.

Employment 1.0 FTE
Gross monthly salary € 2,770 - € 3,539
Required background Research University Degree
Organizational unit Faculty of Philosophy, Theology and Religious Studies
Application deadline 31 May 2024
Are you a highly motivated aspiring junior researcher? Would you like to work on the history of philosophy in the Islamic world? Do you want to develop your own innovative research ideas as a key member of a research team? The Center for the History of Philosophy and Science (CHPS) of the Faculty of Philosophy, Theology and Religious Studies at Radboud University is looking to appoint two PhD candidates for the duration of four years. One postholder will conduct research on Avicenna’s engagement with the generation of his teachers (PhD project 1) and the other on Avicenna’s engagement with the generation of his own students (PhD project 2).
You will join the research team of Dr Andreas Lammer and work closely with him, with another PhD Candidate, and with a postdoctoral researcher, contributing to the ERC Starting Grant project “Avicenna Live: The Immediate Context of Avicenna’s Intellectual Formation” (ALIVE).
You will produce original research either on the contents of a unique manuscript containing the philosophical works of one of Avicenna’s teachers and investigate whether and how the views of his teacher differed from and/or influenced the formation of Avicenna’s own philosophy (PhD project 1) or on a collection of ’Discussions’ which Avicenna had with his own students and study whether and how these discussions may have contributed to reformulations and/or revisions in Avicenna’s later works (PhD project 2).
Both PhD-projects, as well as the ERC project as a whole, aim at recalibrating our perception of Avicenna’s intellectual development through the examination of widely neglected or indeed entirely unknown source texts. Together we will revise the common understanding of Avicenna’s philosophy as the monolithic outcome of a steadfast genius and probe the possibility that Avicenna was integrated in a rich and dynamic culture of debate such that his philosophy, in light of the discussions he had with his teachers and students, bears the marks of development.
As part of your individual project, you will independently read and investigate source texts in their original Arabic language, investigate them in terms of their relation to Avicenna’s main works, and also provide English translations of sections of your source texts as part of your analysis. It is essential that you are able to read Classical Arabic texts and have a good active command of the English language in speech and writing. Knowledge of the history of (late) ancient philosophy, especially the Aristotelian tradition, or medieval philosophy is highly recommended. Knowledge of Avicenna’s philosophy is not immediately required but would obviously be particularly helpful.
As part of the position, which also comes with a yearly travel allowance to participate in academic events and disseminate the results of your own research, you will closely collaborate with the other members of the team in various research, dissemination and outreach activities, as well as organise an academic event yourself in collaboration with the team. This research position carries no teaching obligations.
Other than that, your research will be embedded within the Center for the History of Philosophy and Science (CHPS), an internationally recognised research unit at Radboud University. You will therefore also actively take part in CHPS’s analogous initiatives. CHPS is a particularly cohesive research group. Its members gather daily in a friendly, informal and intellectually lively environment. They share their research in work-in-progress meetings, and they co-teach, co-publish, and co-organise conferences and workshops. PhD supervision within the centre is of high quality, not in the least because of the close and friendly interaction between supervisors and supervisees.
Profile
- You hold a Master’s degree in the History of Philosophy, the History of Science, Islamic Studies, Arabic Studies, or a related discipline. (If the degree has not yet been obtained at the time of application, an additional statement by your current supervisor should confirm that it will be obtained by the time of appointment).
- You have good or very good skills in reading and translating Classical Arabic texts.
- You have a very good command of English, both spoken and written.
- You have a background in the history of ancient, late ancient, and/or medieval philosophy, and ideally also of Avicenna’s philosophy in particular.
- You have philosophical acumen, solid analytical skills, strong historical interests, and philological sensitivity.
- You are an autonomous researcher with excellent communication and organisational skills, who also likes to work in a team.
- You are active, ambitious and eager to help provide a new paradigm for all future studies of Avicenna.
We are
ALIVE is a new research project within the Faculty of Philosophy, Theology and Religious studies funded by a starting grant from the European Research Council (ERC). It seeks to explore a unique set of essential yet hitherto widely neglected source texts for the immediate context of the intellectual development of Muslim polymath Avicenna (Ibn Sīnā, d. 428/1037) and to offer a new digital approach to the study of diverse and difficult textual corpora.
The Center for the History of Philosophy and Science (CHPS) brings together historians of philosophy and historians of science in a single teaching and research unit. CHPS’s core research interests focus on the interplay between philosophical and scientific thought from Antiquity to the 21st century, also addressing the important questions that these themes raise for contemporary philosophers.

La sclérose en plaques (SEP) est une maladie complexe caractérisée par une neuroinflammation, une neurodégénérescence et une démyélinisation. Bien que ces aspects soient bien connus, il existe une particularité intéressante : les réductions du flux sanguin cérébral (CBF) sont apparues comme un facteur important, même aux premiers stades de la maladie. Traditionnellement, l'hypoperfusion a été attribuée à une réduction des demandes métaboliques résultant d'une dégénérescence neuronale et axonale. Cependant, l’ampleur de la réduction du CBF dépasse ce à quoi on pourrait s’attendre uniquement sur la base d’une diminution de l’activité neuronale. Entrez dans la stimulation transcrânienne par courant continu (tDCS), une technique de pointe qui a récemment suscité un intérêt scientifique. Notre recherche vise à déterminer si le tDCS détient la clé pour ralentir la progression de la SEP avant que des dommages neuronaux irréversibles ne s'installent.
