Job description
When considering applications for the professorship, the main emphasis will be on the applicant's ability to document a high level of original scientific work at an international level within the area of immunity to parasites with the main focus on species affecting humans and in particular P. falciparum. This would include investigations of immune evasion mechanisms employed by parasites and novel approaches to identify protective epitopes for vaccine design. Therefore, a deep knowledge and hands-on experience with a wide range of parasite, cellular, and immunological assays, as well as protein production, characterization and immunization strategies are expected.
Expertise on monoclonal antibody technologies would also be an advantage, since the Professor will be heading a facility for monoclonal antibody production and characterization intended for collaboration with other research groups at ISIM. Further, international, and national collaborations is key to all professor positions at ISIM.
The professor will teach parasitology, general immunology, and cancer immunology at the faculty, and will be the course leader for a master course in the immune defence and cancer. Further, the applicant should participate in running the graduate school of immunology and a PhD course in vaccinology.

The Professor will be attached to Centre for Translational Medicine and Parasitology (https://cmp.ku.dk), which is affiliated at the Department.
