Postdoctoral Researcher in Vascular Biology/Neuroscience Opportunity at Karolinska Institute

3 days ago


Solna Municipality, Sweden TN Sweden Full time

At Karolinska Institutet, we conduct successful medical research and hold the largest range of medical education in Sweden. Our Department of Medical Biochemistry and Biophysics is seeking a highly motivated, creative, and scientifically curious team player to join our Division of Vascular Biology.

The Lab

The Jakobsson lab is located in the lively Biomedicum research center in central Stockholm, providing an exceptional environment for research and education. We work with mouse models, bridging fundamental understanding with practical applications. Leveraging cutting-edge technologies like inducible genetic manipulations, lineage tracing, and state-of-the-art confocal live imaging, we aim to pioneer new therapeutic approaches.

Your Mission

We are seeking a highly motivated postdoctoral researcher to join our team in unraveling cell signaling dynamics at the intersection of flow-shear and ligand-induced responses, crucial in understanding vascular malformation associated with inherited human vascular diseases. Utilizing mouse models alongside advanced technologies including single-cell RNA sequencing, we aim to decode intricate cellular mechanisms.

Required Skills and Qualifications

To be eligible for this position, you should hold or soon obtain a doctorate in molecular/developmental biology acquired within the last two years outside of Sweden. Prior engagement in developmental and vascular biology, along with experience in confocal microscopy, image analysis, in vivo experimentation, tissue culture, cell signaling, cloning, and bioinformatics, would be advantageous. Strong communication skills and proficiency in English, both spoken and written, are essential.
