Tenure-track Assistant or Associate Professor in Biomolecular Sciences
3 months ago
The Department of Biology at the University of Copenhagen invites applications for a position as tenure-track Assistant or Associate Professor in biomolecular sciences. The position is to be filled by March 1st, 2025, or as soon as possible thereafter, subject to negotiation.
Description of the positionWe are seeking a dedicated and innovative researcher to strengthen our department's expertise in biomolecular sciences. The selected candidate is expected to play a leading role in establishing an externally funded research program focusing broadly on protein science.
Key responsibilities include:
- Leading research initiatives and securing external funding
- Teaching and supervising students at undergraduate, graduate, and PhD levels, with primary course assignments in biochemistry and protein science
- Disseminating research and scientific results to the public
- Participating in departmental committees and other tasks as requested
The successful candidate will join the Section for Biomolecular Sciences (BMS), a collaborative and supportive environment with 11 research groups working at the intersection of cell biology and biophysics and with access to state-of-the-art laboratory facilities. The section emphasizes molecular, computational, and structural biology and fosters numerous joint projects and research grants. The candidate is also expected to explore interdisciplinary collaboration with other sections at the department, as well as with industry and public research institutions, when such interactions provide synergistic benefits.
Qualifications/profileApplicants should have a background in biochemistry, biophysics, cell biology, molecular biology, and/or structural biology and have demonstrated the ability to perform independent, original, and hypothesis-driven research at a high international level. The ability to teach a wide range of topics in biochemistry and cell biology courses at the BSc and MSc levels is essential, along with a willingness to help develop novel courses.
Qualifications needed at the Tenure-track Assistant Professor level: The position requires a positive publication trajectory in high-level, international, peer-reviewed ISI journals as well as some personal research grants or a designated (by name) part of major grants. Research plans and publication records should delineate a clear potential for attracting external funding. The candidate must have an academic standing showing internationally competitive research, and/or have high potential to make a future scientific impact at the international level. Documented university-level experience in delivering high-quality undergraduate/graduate teaching is not mandatory but will be an advantage. If not already holding formal pedagogical qualifications, candidates are required to obtain pedagogical training equivalent to the University of Copenhagen Teaching and Learning in Higher Education Program for Assistant Professors.
Qualifications needed at the Associate Professor level: The position requires a considerable publication record in high-level, international, peer-reviewed ISI journals as well as a track record of successful external research funding. Candidates are also required to have documented university-level competencies in delivering high-quality undergraduate/graduate teaching and must be able to explain and reflect upon their own teaching practice. Formal pedagogical training or supervision equivalent to the University of Copenhagen teacher training programme is required. Finally, candidates are expected to have managerial and outreach qualifications and experience.
Terms of employment
The position is open from March 1st, 2025, or as soon as possible thereafter. The position is covered by the Memorandum on Job Structure for Academic Staff. Terms of appointment and payment accord to the agreement between the Ministry of Finance and The Danish Confederation of Professional Associations on Academics in the State. Negotiation for salary supplement is possible.
Filing of application
The position may be applied for at the Tenure-track Assistant or Associate Professor level. Please note that it is possible to apply at more than one level. If applied at more than one level, separate applications must be submitted (see below).
Please include:
- Curriculum vitae including information on positions held, grants held (principal investigator, co-investigator, career development grants), international networks and activities, outreach activities etc.
