Deutsches Krebsforschungszentrum

More than 450,000 people are diagnosed with cancer each year in Germany. Cancer is a disease that poses enormous challenges to research, because every cancer is different and its course can vary immensely even from one patient to the next. To perform research into cancer is the task of the German Cancer Research Center (Deutsches Krebsforschungszentrum, DKFZ) according to its statutes. DKFZ is the largest biomedical research institute in Germany and a member of the Helmholtz Association of National Research Centers. In over 90 divisions and research groups, our more than 3,000 employees, of which more than 1,200 are scientists, are investigating the mechanisms of cancer, are identifying cancer risk factors and are trying to find strategies to prevent people from getting cancer.They are developing novel approaches to make tumor diagnosis more precise and treatment of cancer patients more successful.

Reference number:   2025-0184 Frankfurt Full-time DKTK partner site Frankfurt/Mainz - Machine Learning/Bioinformatics in Oncology “Research for a life without cancer” is our mission at the German Cancer Research Center. We investigate how cancer develops, identify cancer risk factors and look for new cancer prevention strategies. We are developing new methods with which tumors can be diagnosed more precisely and cancer patients can be treated more successfully. Every contribution counts – whether in research, administration or infrastructure. This is what makes our daily work so meaningful and exciting. Together with university partners at seven renowned partner sites, we have established the German Cancer Consortium (DKTK). For the Research Group “   Machine Learning in Oncology   ” (headed by Prof. Dr. Florian Buettner) at the   DKTK partner site Frankfurt/Mainz   and the Goethe University Frankfurt, we are seeking for the next possible date a...
