The University of Gothenburg tackles society's challenges with diverse knowledge. 47 500 students and 6 400 employees make the university a large and inspiring place to work and study. Strong research and attractive study programmes attract scientists and students from around the world. With new knowledge and new perspectives, the University contributes to a better future.

The Institute of Biomedicine is involved in both research and education. In both of these The Institute of Biomedicine is involved in both research and education. In both of these areas, we focus on fundamental knowledge of the living cell - what it consists of, how it works, how its function is directed by the genetic material, and how it interacts with various kinds of micro-organisms. Using this knowledge, we try to elucidate the causes of diseases, and find new ways to diagnose and treat them.

The Institute is composed of the following four departments:

• The Department of Infectious Diseases
• The Department of Microbiology and Immunology
• The Department of Medical Biochemistry and Cell Biology
• The Department of Laboratory Medicine

At present, the institute has about 370 employees and approximately 400 million SEK in total assets

The overall goal with the project is to increase our understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying neuroblastoma and to identify molecular targets for Anaplastic Lymphoma Kinase (ALK).

Job assignments
The research position is part of a project focusing on mechanisms that regulate initiation, growth and survival of neuroblastoma / ALK positive cancers and their microenvironment. The researcher will use a wide range of methods, such as genetic, cell biology and in vivo models to observe / understand / clarify upstream / downstream target proteins for ALK both during developmental processes and disease. The researcher will also be involved in Drosophila and zebrafish models of neuroblastoma / ALK positive cancer for validation of new therapeutic strategies. Signal pathways will be further investigated for their pathological relevance.

Qualifications
PhD in a relevant subject. The applicant should have experience with Drosophila and zebrafish models systems as well as in molecular biology and genetics.

Employment
The employment is limited (temporary) for 18 months and full time with placement at the Institute of biomedicine. First day of employment as agreed.
