We are looking for a highly motivated and dynamic postdoc for a 3-year position to join the Lund Group.

Our research
Our team aims to understand how ribosome specialization leads to the instalment of translational programs and how these processes are hijacked in human disease. Due to the central role of the ribosome in many biological processes, we use a broad panel of model systems, including human stem cells, neuronal cultures, and 2D and 3D cultures of human cells and patient samples.

The team is highly international, and we have a broad range of local and international collaborators. We believe that cooperation and collegiality are essential elements for research successes. You can find more information about the team and our work here: https://www.bric.ku.dk/research-groups/Research/lund_group/

The project
You will join the Lund Group focusing on ribosome heterogeneity and specialized translation. We use a broad array of wet lab and computational techniques and develop new techniques to push our research forward. We highly value collaboration and cocreation and you will have freedom to codevelop the project. Your project will be to explore how pathological translation programs contribute to the development of colorectal cancer. You will use both mouse and human organoid cultures, and key techniques will likely involve ribosome profiling, RiboMeth-seq and mass spectrometry. The methods are established in the laboratory or available through core facilities.

Profile
We are looking for a highly motivated and enthusiastic scientist with the following competencies and experience:

Essential experience and skills:

  • You have a PhD in biomedical or natural sciences
  • You are highly experienced in molecular and cellular biology
