Employer: Karolinska Institutet, Department of Medicine, Solna, Unit for Computational Medicine Website: http://www.ki.se Location: Karolinska Institutet, Stockholm, Sweden Type: Postdoctoral Posted: January 11, 2011 Expires: March 12, 2011 Requisition number: reference number 07296/2010
Area of responsibilities/description of the work
This postdoctoral position involves establishing cell culture systems for primary human lymphocytes and carrying out cell differentiation and stimulation experiments as well as RNA interference studies on these cells. This work is part of a larger initiative by our group, in collaboration with leading researchers at Karolinska Institutet, aiming to comprehensively phenotype immune cell activities on the transcriptional, proteomic, and metabolic levels. A portion of the work will be performed abroad, in collaboration with leading groups at Harvard Medical School in RNA interference methodology using primary cells. The position is for 2 years with good possibilities for extension.
The position is located at the Unit for Computational Medicine (www.compmed.se), at the Department of Medicine, Solna, Karolinska Institutet. The Unit is physically located at the Center for Molecular Medicine (CMM) (www.cmm.ki.se) that offers an outstanding research environment in the field of complex disease.
Qualifications
Applications are invited from highly talented and enthusiastic researchers with a PhD degree or a foreign qualification deemed equivalent to a doctorate. A strong background in mammalian cell biology is required. The ideal candidate will be experienced in leukocyte biology, in particular T cell differentiation and activation, and familiar with handling primary human cells. Broad knowledge of cell and molecular biology methods and documented ability to lead research projects are requirements. Experience with co-culture techniques, cell proliferation and T-cell activation assays, as well as documented ability to work in collaborative projects is meriting. Good knowledge of spoken and written English is required.
To qualify, the applicant must hold a doctor’s degree or a foreign qualification deemed equivalent to a doctorate. Applicants who have completed their degree no more than three years before the last date for applications should be given priority. Candidates who have completed their degree earlier than this should receive equal priority if special grounds exist.
Postgraduates who have yet to graduate may apply if their public defense is scheduled to take place within three months after the application deadline, in which case verification from the Dissertation Committee or equivalent body must be submitted with the application.
