Senior Research Fellow in Malaria Parasite-Vector Interactions
5 days ago
In a lab with a strong track record of facilitating the postdoc-PI transition, you will work in a rodent model, building on our unique expertise in developing large-scale phenotypic screens or developing other genome scale approaches to understand molecular parasite-vector interactions.
About the PositionYou will join the Laboratory for Molecular Infection Medicine Sweden (MIMS), hosted at the Department of Molecular Biology. You will have access to outstanding research facilities and networking opportunities through our partnership Nordic EMBL-Partnership for Molecular Medicine.
Qualifications and RequirementsTo be appointed under the postdoctoral agreement, you must have completed a doctoral degree or a foreign degree deemed equivalent. Priority should be given to candidates who completed their doctoral degree within three years prior, but special reasons may also make you eligible if you have been absent due to illness, parental leave, or similar circumstances.
Essential Skills and QualificationsYou demonstrate a solid track record of successful research using experimental genetic methods. You have a proven interest in pathogen-host interactions and are willing to work in a rodent model. Your experience could be related to malaria parasites or their vectors, or you bring strong skills in another aspect of cell and molecular biology that you can apply to this question.
What We OfferWe offer an estimated salary of around 40,000 - 60,000 SEK per month, depending on your qualifications and experience. You will also have access to excellent research facilities and opportunities for professional development. The position is available for 1-2 years, and you will have the opportunity to pursue an independent line of research while being part of a team science approach.
