Stockholm, Stockholm, Sweden Karolinska Institutet Full time
Postdoctoral Studies in Single Cell and Spatial Transcriptomics Computational Biology

We are seeking a highly motivated and skilled postdoctoral researcher to join our team at the Karolinska Institutet. The successful candidate will have a strong background in bioinformatics, statistics, and computational biology, with expertise in statistical and bioinformatics software.

Research Focus

The research group led by Associate Professor Eduardo Villablanca investigates the molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying the establishment of intestinal homeostasis and how breakdown of these mechanisms might lead to inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). To tackle these questions, we are using single cell RNA-sequencing and spatial transcriptomics to generate a comprehensive transcriptomic landscape of the intestinal tissue during the reestablishment of intestinal homeostasis upon damage.

Responsibilities
  • Data QC, data management, and archival storage
  • Analysis of large datasets, preparation of codes, development of new methods/tools for advanced analysis of datasets
  • Support the ongoing research in the group, help write papers, grants, and scientific meeting presentations
  • Shape, develop, and maintain the current computing resources of the group
Requirements
  • A Ph.D. or M.D./Ph.D. in immunology or computational biology
  • Outstanding creative thinking, problem-solving, motivation, persistence, as well as personal initiative and communication skills
  • Independent work at the laboratory as well as extensive collaboration with clinicians and other experimental groups
  • Excellent molecular and cell biology as well as microbiology skills and strong background in mucosal immunology
  • Strong publication record in peer-reviewed journals
  • Fluency in both oral and written English is necessary
What We Offer

The position is located within the Department of Medicine, Solna, and offers a unique opportunity to work in a multidisciplinary research environment. The successful candidate will have access to state-of-the-art facilities and collaborate with a team of experienced researchers. The position is available for a maximum of two years within a four-year period following the receipt of a doctoral degree or equivalent.

The head of the department determines whether their previous training and scholarly qualifications correspond to a Swedish doctorate or higher.
