Background
The postdoctoral position is part of a national project, BIO IBD (
https://www.oru.se/BIO-IBD/), aiming at discovering biomarkers for diagnosis, prognosis and therapy response of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). The project, BIO IBD, carries out internationally recognised multi-disciplinary research in close partnership with other Swedish Universities, international corporations and with the public sector.
Our aim with this recruitment is to further strengthen the research competence within the field of biomedicine with bioinformatic analyses in IBD projects.
Duties and responsibilities
The appointment as a postdoctoral researcher is intended to enable persons who have recently been awarded their doctoral degree, to consolidate and develop primarily their research skills.
[The position especially relates to the possibility to develop proficiency in analysis, testing and discovery of novel biosignatures associated to different aspects of the disease IBD. The work includes analysing data and applying bioinformatics tools on data from different analytical platforms, such as genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics and metabolomics, originating from both human and microbial samples. The work will be conducted in collaboration with medical and biomedical researchers and bioinformaticians at both the university and at the university hospital. You will also have the opportunity to participate in teaching activities at the University.
The position will be funded in part by the Swedish Foundation for Strategic Research, SSF, that supports research in medicine for the purpose of strengthening Sweden 's competitiveness in this field.
The candidate is expected to have a strong research background and international publications within applied biomedicine with analyses within medical bioinformatics. ]
