About the research project

We are seeking an ambitious postdoctoral fellow with a strong interest in functional genomics and neural disorder models. Our research focuses on uncovering chromatin regulatory mechanisms and interconnected gene expression programs that drive neurodevelopment and underlie neurodevelopmental disorders. We utilize cutting-edge functional genomics and epigenomics assays, integrated with single-cell technologies, to investigate these processes in advanced 2D and 3D neural disorder model systems.

Your job responsibilities

As Postdoc in Functional Genomics for Neural Insights, 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:

  • Conducting independent research of high international quality, including publication.
  • Performing pooled functional genomic screens in complex disease model systems and characterizing hits from those screens both in vitro and in vivo.
  • Generating single-cell and spatial omics datasets across modalities to gain insights into disease mechanisms.
  • Maintaining detailed electronic records of experimental procedures, results, and analyses.
  • Preparing reports, manuscripts, and presentations for internal meetings and external scientific conferences.

You will report to Professor Kyung Min Noh.

Your competences

You have academic qualifications at PhD level, for example, within the areas of single-cell technologies or high-throughput CRISPR screening with data analysis. You have extensive practical experience and proven track record in cellular, biochemical, and cell biological assays. You can independently lead research projects and collaborate effectively with interdisciplinary teams to drive innovation and achieve scientific goals.

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.

Questions about the position

If you have any questions about the position, please contact Kyung Min Noh tel.: (+49) 6221 387 8527.

Your place of work will be the Department of Biomedicine, Høegh-Guldbergs Gade 10, DK-8000 Aarhus C, Denmark.
