Postdoc in cell biology

1 month ago


Aarhus N, Denmark Aarhus Universitet Full time

The Department of Clinical Medicine at Faculty of Health at Aarhus University invites applications for a position as Postdoc in the field of aquaporin water channels and bacterial infection as per 1st April 2025 or as soon as possible thereafter. The position is a fixed-term full-time position for 12 months with the possibility of extension.

As a post doc at the Department of Clinical Medicine, you will be part of what is probably the largest health science research department in Denmark. Our clinical research covers all the medical specialities and takes place in close collaboration with the university hospital and the regional hospitals in the Central Denmark Region. We have approx. 30,000 square meters of modern research facilities for experimental surgery and medicine, animal facilities and also advanced scanners at our disposal. The department has overall responsibility for the Master's degree programs in medicine and in molecular medicine. At the department we are approx. 670 academic employees, 500 PhD students and 160 technical/administrative employees who are cooperating across disciplines. As a post doc, you will be working at Aarhus University Hospital or another hospital in the Central Denmark Region. You can read more about the department here and about the faculty here.

About the research project

Vasopressin (VP) signaling enhances reabsorption of water through the plasma membrane of kidney collecting duct principal cells by regulating the redistribution of the water channel aquaporin-2 (AQP2) from cytoplasmic vesicles to the apical plasma membrane. We recently discovered that upon bacterial infection AQP2 plasma membrane accumulation increases, independently of the VP-mediated canonical pathway. The project aims to dissect the molecular mechanisms involved in this alternative uncharacterized pathway.

Your job responsibilities

As Postdoc in cell biology, your position is primarily research-based but may also involve teaching assignments. You will contribute to the development of the department through research of high international quality. In your daily work, you will work closely with colleagues on your project, where you will receive supervision and guidance.
Your main tasks will consist of:

- Independent research of high international quality, including publication.
- Grant writing.
- Supervision of students.

You will report to Professor Lene N. Nejsum.

Your competences

You have academic qualifications at PhD level, for example within the following areas cell biology, immunology or molecular biology.

As a person, you have good interpersonal skills, are inclusive and team-oriented and able to contribute to a good work environment. We expect you to be fluent in oral and written English.

In order to be assessed as qualified for a Postdoc position, you must meet these academic criteria.

Specific expectations for the position include:
A proven track record with first-author publications.
Experience with scientific writing, as well as peer reviewing journal articles.
Experience supervising students.
Experience in presenting at international conferences.
Experience with writing research grant applications will also be an advantage as it is expected that the candidate actively participates in grant writing.

Shortlisting will be used.
