To promote the generation of new internationally competitive research teams we wish to recruit three scientists with experience in basic experimental medical science. This recruitment is part of a strategic initiative to develop creative research environments for translational medical research with close interactions between basic and clinically oriented scientists. The positions are guaranteed for five years. The positions will be placed in clinically oriented research environments and they will be affiliated to a clinical department. The candidates are expected to run an independent research project and build her or his own research group, to supervise graduate students and post-docs, to interact synergistically with especially clinically oriented research groups, and to take active part in the development of the research environment. Laboratory space, start-up funds and initial support for graduate students/postdocs are provided.
Umeå University has a strong focus on understanding molecular mechanisms of disease. We integrate molecular, cellular, and developmental biology with transgenic approaches and functional genomics. Umeå University provides state-of-the art communal core service facilities, including a modern animal facility, a Transgenic Mouse Service Facility, a Gene Array Facility, Cell Sorting, Bio Optics and an advanced proteomics platform.
