Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) are relatively common among the population in the Western world. The cause of these diseases is unclear, but recent research suggests that patients have an unbalanced immunological activity in the intestinal mucosa, together with a change in the composition of the intestinal bacteria.
Subject area
Immunopathogenesis of Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD)
Subject area description
In this project the immunopathogenesis as well as prediction of disease progression and therapy response in patients with IBD will be studied. The project particularly aims to develop an in vitro model to predict therapy response in IBD patients undergoing treatment with biologicals.
Job assignments
The project involves many laboratory-based methods such as isolation and culture of human cells, immunohistochemistry, flow cytometry and PCR. The project will generate large amounts of data which will be handled with bioinformatics tools.
Eligibility
An achieved doctoral degree is compulsory for a position as postdoctor at the University of Gothenburg. The doctoral thesis shall be in a relevant area according to the specific position stated here. Since a position as postdoctor aims to give new holders of the doctorate the opportunity mainly to strengthen and develop their scholarly proficiency, we aim for those who have a doctoral degree not older than 3 years counting from last date of application.
The qualifications for academic positions are given in Chapter 4, Section 3 - 4 of the Higher Education Ordinance.
Assessment
Previous experience of research in intestinal mucosal immunology is an advantage. Experience of working with isolation and culture of human cells and flow cytometry is desired. Furthermore, a good knowledge of how to process large data sets is a merit. Previously demonstrated ability to work independently is valued very highly.
Regulations for the evaluation of qualifications for academic positions are given in Chapter 4, Section 3 - 4 of the Higher Education Ordinance.
