MDC Global Fellow Postdoctoral Program: Launch your independent, interdisciplinary research career in Berlin.

The MDC Global Fellow is an initiative that brings outstanding international postdoctoral researchers to the Max Delbrück Center (MDC) in Berlin. Embedded in MDC’s vibrant scientific community, the program supports innovative, co-supervised research projects that tackle today’s biomedical Grand Challenges through cross-disciplinary collaboration.

Each Fellow leads an independent project, jointly supervised by two Max Delbrück Center research groups, creating new synergies across disciplines. This model is designed to support interdisciplinary thinking, provide access to diverse methods, and foster scientific creativity. While many projects may integrate experimental and computational approaches, the program supports all combinations of disciplines and methodologies that together enable ambitious, cross-cutting research.

The 3-year fellowship offers:

  • A competitive salary and full-time employment (TVöD-Bund)
  • Research and mobility funding
  • Consumables and investment budget
  • A structured co-supervision and mentoring framework
  • Access to MDC Academy’s advanced training portfolio
  • Full integration into a collaborative and innovative, global scientific environment
