Solna Municipality, Sweden Karlstad University Full time
Job Description

We are looking for a Postdoctoral Researcher to join our team at Karolinska Institutet. The successful candidate will work on developing a method for generating photoreceptors from pluripotent stem cells.

Key responsibilities include:

  • Culturing and differentiating pluripotent stem cells
  • Isolating cells
  • Conducting genetic analysis
  • Using microscopy to test the functionality of the generated photoreceptors

The generated photoreceptors will be tested in animal models, and once functionality has been demonstrated, the work will focus on making the method clinically compatible for future clinical trials.

Required Skills and Qualifications

To be eligible for this role, you must have a PhD or a foreign degree deemed to be equivalent to a Swedish PhD. Completion of your doctoral degree within the last three years is considered an advantage.

  • Experience in differentiation of pluripotent stem cells is highly advantageous.

It is also beneficial if you have experience in retinal developmental biology or production of retinal cell types, flow cytometry, cell sorting, microscopy, clinical cell production, and GMP.

Benefits

At Karolinska Institutet, we offer a creative and inspiring environment with wide-ranging expertise and interests. We conduct successful medical research and hold the largest range of medical education in Sweden.

You will have the opportunity to work with a wide range of scientific fields within medicine and health, giving you ample opportunity to exchange knowledge and experience.
