Postdoc Positions in Proteomics and Genomics at University of Copenhagen
Two highly attractive postdoctoral positions are available in the Choudhary group at the University of Copenhagen.
About the groups
The Choudhary lab is technically and internationally diverse and embedded in an excellent environment that supports high-quality research and encourages interdisciplinary collaboration. The lab conducts research using interdisciplinary, state-of-the-art technologies, including quantitative proteomics, next-generation nucleic acid sequencing, advanced microscopy, CRISPR-based genome editing, and bioinformatics. The lab uses diverse cell models, including embryonic stem cells and their differentiated derivatives.
The group extensively collaborates with top-level international researchers, routinely publishes in top-ranked journals, and has an outstanding track record in training the next generation of researchers.
Project description
Our group works in the broad area of proteomics, genomics, and cell signaling. In this project, we are interested in understanding the scope and function of lysine acetylation in gene regulation, as well as the mechanisms of gene activation by cis-regulatory enhancers. The project will combine CRISPR-based genome editing with NGS-based approaches (i.e. RNA-seq, ChIP-seq, ATAC-seq) and cell biological approaches to uncover new regulatory pathways and decipher underlying mechanisms.
The postdoc position is funded by a newly funded ERC advanced grant (Oct 2024- Sept. 2029), with additional funding from Novo Nordisk Foundation.
Tentative start date: November 2024 or later. The start date can be negotiated.
Qualifications
The candidate should have demonstrated excellent scientific productivity, evidenced by high-quality research publications, be able to conduct independent and creative research, and show good interpersonal and communication skills.
- The candidate is required to have a PhD/MD level of education corresponding to the Danish PhD degree in natural or medical science.
- Excellent scientific track record, including at least one publication in a high-quality, peer-reviewed international journal. Pre-prints can be counted for fulfilling this requirement.
- Expert knowledge in one or more of the following areas is advantageous:
- Prior experience in the area of epigenetics, and gene transcription regulation.
- Hands-on experience in generating datasets for ChIP-seq, RNA-seq, ATAC-seq.
- Hands-on experience in quantitative mass spectrometry for analyzing proteins, their modifications, and protein-protein interactions.
- Hands-on experience in bioinformatic analyzing next-generation sequencing datasets, such as ChIP-seq, RNA-seq, ATAC-seq.
- Experience in computer programming languages, such as R, Python.
- Strong background in the statistical analysis of large-scale data.
- Experience in molecular biology techniques, including proficient use of CRISPR-based genome editing.
Good communication skills, both oral and written.
An analytical aptitude for devising innovative scientific or technical solutions.
