Company Overview

Karolinska Institutet is one of the world's leading medical universities. Our vision is to pursue the development of knowledge about life and to promote better health for all.


Job Description

We are seeking a highly motivated and talented researcher to join our team in investigating pain mechanisms in fibromyalgia. The successful candidate will investigate pain mechanisms in fibromyalgia, with a specific focus on the muscle pathophysiology associated with fibromyalgia-related pain.

The project aims to explore whether immune cells and antibodies contribute to muscle pain and, if so, to elucidate the underlying mechanisms. This research will involve analyzing human samples, employing advanced imaging techniques, and utilizing in vivo models alongside a range of cellular and molecular methods.

You will collaborate closely with preclinical and clinical researchers, as well as biostatisticians, to enhance our understanding of pain from a translational perspective.

Required Skills and Qualifications
  • A strong background in immunology, neuroscience, biomedical sciences, bioinformatics, or a related field.
  • Practical experience with immunohistochemistry, confocal imaging, image analysis, mRNA analysis, and molecular biology techniques.
  • Excellent interpersonal and communication skills to thrive in a multidisciplinary environment.
Benefits
  • A creative and inspiring work environment full of expertise and curiosity.
  • An individual research project, a well-educated supervisor, a vast range of elective courses, and the opportunity to work in a leading research group.
  • Access to our modern gym for free and reimbursements for medical care.
