We are looking for a highly motivated and dynamic researcher for a two year position, to commence Aug. 1st, 2020.

Our research
Our main research interest is molecular and genetic mechanisms of cardiac development and congenital heart disease. We are using a multidisciplinary approach, where we combine genetic and genomic investigations of patients, with functional investigations based on embryonic tissues, cell models and zebrafish. Our ambition is to perform research on the highest level and publish in high-quality international journals.
