The SDU FOODLAB at SDU Biotechnology, Department of Green Technology at the University of Southern Denmark (SDU) invites applicants for a 24-month postdoctoral research fellowship in advanced microscopy of foods with an expected starting date of March 1st, 2024, or as soon as possible thereafter.
The position is part of an interdisciplinary project aiming to combine food (micro)structure with deep-learning image analysis and is a collaborative effort between SDU FOODLAB and researchers from the Department of Computer Science, University of Copenhagen (UCPH). The project will investigate microstructures in food matrices using different advanced optical microscopy techniques to image protein and fat microstructures and their changes over time upon different processing conditions such as enzymatic, physicochemical, or heat. The project aims to adapt advanced optical microscopy for studying food to understand the microstructural origin of texture, and to develop better quantitative tools for describing macromolecular network assemblies in food systems. The postdoctoral researcher employed in this position will be working in close collaboration with the project partners at UCPH to exchange microscopy images (SDU) and image analysis tools (UCPH)
The ideal scientific profile of the candidate has:
The candidate must expect to be working with all these areas during the project and we will ensure that sufficient training is provided in subjects where the candidate is less experienced.
Further, the candidate is expected to:
The SDU FOODLAB was established in 2019 and explores the fundamentals of the microstructures that underline food texture and develops new optical microscopy methods to unlock a structural scale previously inaccessible, intending to build a hierarchical understanding of food matrices from the molecular scale to macroscopic. The lab offers modern facilities for food characterization, and advanced microscopy infrastructure via the imaging facility DaMBIC (http://www.dambic.dk/). The group consists of one associate professor, one assistant professor, and several postdocs and PhD students, with diverse scientific backgrounds covering from biophysics to food science. Within the group, there is flexibility to accommodate individual professional aspirations and career ambitions and we support professional development incl. teaching, supervision, and course participation.
The SDU FOODLAB is part of the young and aspiring Biotechnology section (SDU Biotech) offering complementary competencies within the biotechnology field.
Exciting times, so come join us!

Conditions of employment
Employment as a postdoc requires scientific qualifications at PhD level. Employment as a postdoc is temporary and will cease without further notice at the end of the period.
The successful applicant will be employed in accordance with the agreement between the Ministry of Finance and the Danish Confederation of Professional Associations.
