Odense M
A 2½-year postdoc position to study transcriptional regulation of cell function at single-cell resolution is available in the group of Rasmus Siersbæk at the Functional Genomics & Metabolism Research Unit at Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, University of Southern Denmark. The position is available from 1 August 2022 or soon thereafter. Application deadline is 1 May 2022.
Research Project
Precise regulation of transcription plays a pivotal role in determining cell function in normal physiology and pathophysiology. Transcription is coordinated by a complex interplay between multiple transcription factors and coregulatory proteins. These protein complexes have traditionally been studied using bulk methods relying on millions of cells (e.g. mass spectrometry-based methods).
You will lead a project supported by a Villum Young Investigator grant that aims to understand the transcriptional mechanisms controlling cell function at single-cell resolution. You will apply and develop advanced single-cell technologies to study the cross-talk between transcription factors and coregulators in individual cells. The goal is to understand how differences in transcriptional complexes between cells drive cellular heterogeneity, which impacts normal tissue function and disease progression (e.g. cancer).
Lab and Research Environment
You will be part of a dynamic, supportive, and ambitious research group consisting of both postdocs, PhD students, and undergraduate students. Our group applies advanced functional genomics and proteomics approaches, including single-cell methodologies, to understand how transcriptional mechanisms shape cell function in the context of cancer. We are positioned in the Functional Genomics and Metabolism Research Unit at Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, University of Southern Denmark. Our unit currently hosts seven independent research groups with a strong focus on chromatin and transcriptional mechanisms in health and disease. It is an innovative, collaborative, and international research environment with a strong scientific and social network for students and postdocs. As part of the unit, you will have access to world-class facilities in next generation sequencing, single-cell technologies, flow cytometry, mass spectrometry, and bioimaging.
Your Profile
We are looking for a highly motivated, innovative, and collaborative postdoc to lead this project together with a PhD student and undergraduate students. You have:
