Academic Technical staff within Physics

2 days ago

Odense M, Denmark Syddansk Universitet Full time

SDU Department of Physics, Chemistry and Pharmacy invites applications for a position as Specialkonsulent within the physics section.

You will primarily be engaged in working in the group of Francesca Serra on liquid crystal order in cells and collective behavior. Just as liquid crystal molecules align with each other, so do elongated cells, and this impacts their organization and physiological behavior.

Your work in Francesca Serra’s group will include

- Developing protocols and best practices for growing and maintaining different cell lines.
- Utilizing different types of optical microscopy techniques to image the cells and various components at the subcellular level, and analyze microscopy data.
- Helping with the micro-fabrication of cell substrates
- Helping to coordinate the organization of the lab and provide laboratory training and supervision of staff and students
- Supporting the strategic decisions of the group leader
- Supporting networking activities and collaborations
- Academic writing, publication of papers and research communication at conferences

In addition, the position includes engagement and responsibilities at the departmental level, including:

- coordinating the organization study groups and mentor pairing for the first year physics students
- assist the physics faculty in initiatives that increase the recruitment and retention of students

The position thus holds a high level of responsibility, but also comes with influence and opportunity to participate in research at the highest level. The work will be in great part located within Phylife, an interdisciplinary group of scientists who work at the boundary between physics, optics, bioimaging and biology.

Qualifications

To be a suitable candidate, you must have a PhD in physics, biophysics or a closely related discipline.

Furthermore, you are expected to have documented

- practical experience with wet lab work, including tissue and/or cell cultures
- considerable experience with various types of optical microscopy, especially fluorescence and confocal microscopy, hereunder also experience with quantitative analyses of microscopy data
- engagement in teaching and student-related activities, such as supervision/mentoring or outreach activities

Finally, you are also expected to be good at communicating and interacting with people from different fields and backgrounds.

Further information is available from Francesca Serra at serra@sdu.dk.

The Department of Physics, Chemistry and Pharmacy is one of four departments at the Faculty of Science, SDU and is located in Odense.

We are happy to move beyond traditional disciplines and work to develop new technologies and sciences across physics, chemistry, pharmacy, mathematics, computer science and biology.

The position is open for 5 years: 1 April 2025-31 March 2030.

Application deadline: 6 February 2025.

Employment shall take place in accordance with the framework agreement between the Ministry of Finance and AC (the Danish Confederation of Professional Associations).

Application must include cover letter, CV and certificate. All documents in connection with the application should not contain CPR number (civil registration number) – in that case, the CPR number must be crossed out.

All attached files must be in Adobe PDF format. Cover letter and CV can contain max. 5 Mb.
