The Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology invites applications for a tenured position as associate professor in the area of functional genomics and metabolism. The application deadline is 19 October 2023, and the expected starting date is 1 January 2024, or soon thereafter.
The position is based in the Center for Functional Genomics and Tissue Plasticity (ATLAS) supported by the Danish National Research Foundation. The aim of ATLAS is to obtain systems-level, mechanistic and cell type-resolved understanding of adipose and hepatic tissue plasticity in response to diet-induced obesity and regression in mouse models; and to translate this for in-depth understanding of the functional changes in human adipose and hepatic tissues in response to severe obesity and reversal. The centre applies a combination of functional genomics approaches including single cell sequencing, mouse models, proteomics, in vivo targeting, computational biology and clinical studies.
ATLAS is hosted by the Functional Genomics & Metabolism Research Unit, a research section that currently hosts seven independent groups focusing on various aspects of functional genomics, with focus on gene regulatory mechanisms controlling cellular identity, metabolism and cellular differentiation and plasticity. The section runs an in-house sequencing platform and applies a wide range of advanced sequencing-based technologies including single-cell sequencing and computational biology. Target systems include cell culture models, advanced mouse models and clinical biopsies. The research unit constitutes an international, ambitious, highly dynamic, and well-equipped working environment.
The unit and the department have state-of-the-art facilities for next generation sequencing, single- cell transcriptomics, flow cytometry, mass spectrometry, metabolomics, bioimaging and transgenic mouse work. Strategic research alliances exist with Odense University Hospital (OUH). In addition to the ATLAS Center of Excellence, the unit also hosts the Center for Adipocyte Signaling (ADIPOSIGN) recently supported by a major grant from the Novo Nordisk Foundation.
Other internationally renowned research directions in the department include Proteomics, Microbiology and Bioimaging, and the department hosts the Danish Molecular Biomedical Imaging Center (DaMBIC ).
The successful candidate will be expected to:

The application must include:
• A curriculum vitae
• A full list of publications
• Copies of all publications on which the applicant wishes to be evaluated
• A brief survey of the applicant's most important research results and research plans for the next three years
• A teaching portfolio.
Shortlisting may be used in the assessment process.
Incomplete applications and applications received after the deadline will neither be considered nor evaluated.
An interview may be included as a part of the overall assessment of the applicant’s qualifications.
Applications must be submitted electronically using the link "Apply online". Attached files must be in Adobe PDF or Word format. Each box can only contain a single file of max. 10 Mb. We strongly recommend that you read How to apply before you apply.
