Postdoctoral researcher in mitochondrial biology
5 days ago
Research at the Division of Molecular Metabolism aims to understand the regulation of mitochondrial function and the role of mitochondrial dysfunction in disease and aging. By combining genetic, biochemical, and structural approaches with animal models and patient material, the division seeks to increase our understanding of mitochondrial disease pathophysiology and develop novel treatment strategies. We are currently seeking 1 highly motivated postdoctoral researcher to join the research group of Anna Wredenberg.
DutiesMitochondrial dysfunction is a hallmark of numerous rare and common diseases and is heavily implicated in age-associated diseases and the natural aging process. As a postdoctoral researcher, you will lead and work within a small team to investigate molecular mechanisms of mitochondrial gene expression or dissect the interplay between mitochondrial function and cellular metabolism. The Wredenberg group uses biochemistry, molecular biology, and modern omics approaches, including structural studies, to understand the molecular processes underlying mitochondrial dysfunction and aging progression. In vivo models from the fly or mouse, including conditional knockout strains, will be implemented in this project.
Your profileWe invite applications from enthusiastic and motivated individuals with a PhD in molecular biology or genetics. Experience in mitochondrial research, biochemistry, molecular biology, mouse genetics, or different omics methods is advantageous. Strong documentation skills and proficiency in spoken and written English are essential. Successful candidates should be able and willing to work collaboratively within a team to pursue their research. Personal suitability is of great importance when evaluating applicants.
Entry requirementsScholarships for postdoctoral qualification can be established for foreign researchers who place their qualifications in Sweden. The purpose of scholarships for postdoctoral qualification is to promote internationalization and contribute to research qualification after a doctorate or equivalent.
A scholarship for carrying out postdoctoral research can be granted for a maximum of two years within a four year period following the receipt of a doctoral degree or equivalent.
To be eligible for a postdoctoral scholarship, the person must have obtained a doctorate or a foreign degree deemed to be equivalent to a doctorate. Applicants who have not completed a doctorate at the end of the application period may also apply, provided that all requirements for a completed degree are met before the (intended) start date of the post doctoral education.
The amount is tax free and it is set for twelve months at a time, paid out on a six months basis. In exceptional cases, shorter periods may be acceptable.
Application processAn application must contain the following documents in English or Swedish:
- A personal motivation letter explaining your research interest (max 1 page)
- Contact information of at least two references
Welcome to apply at the latest March 23rd, 2025
The application is to be submitted on the Varbi recruitment system.
