Job Description:Postdoctoral Researcher mapping Developing Progenitor Cell Niches (Scholarship)
Do you want to contribute to top quality medical research?
Description of the research group
The postdoctoral project will be conducted in Maria Genander's research group. More information about the Genander lab can be found here: Genander Lab.
The Genander lab is interested in understanding development and maintenance of epithelial tissues and how alterations in stem and progenitor cells during homeostasis lead to tumor formation. The advertised project aims to characterize the establishment of esophageal progenitor cell niches during development.
Your mission
The current project will be centered around characterizing the dynamics of progenitor populations during esophageal development. The studies include analysis and lineage tracing using genetically modified mouse models coupled to in vivo single-cell RNA-Sequencing to map progenitor-niche interactions during development.
Your profile
We seek a curious, highly motivated, and creative postdoc with a strong background in stem cell biology. The ideal candidate should have experience working with mouse models and programming languages to analyze sequencing data. Experience with organoid cultures, molecular biology, next-generation sequencing, and large-scale bioinformatics analysis is a strength. Excellent interpersonal and communication skills (in English written and verbal) are required. Emphasis will also be placed on personal suitability, fitting well into the current research group.
Entry requirements
Scholarships 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 postdoctoral education.
The head of the department determines whether their previous training and scholarly qualifications correspond to a Swedish doctorate or higher.
Type of scholarship
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.
