Job description
The applicant shall be heading an independent Research Group at CBMR and will be expected to conduct research aligned with the Center's strategy. Preference is given to applicants with a background in metabolomics (metabolic flux analysis), cardiovascular pathophysiology and the central regulation of body weight and energy homeostasis.

The Associate Professor’s or Professor’s responsibilities will primarily consist of:

  • Research, including publication/academic dissemination, in close collaboration with other Research Groups within CBMR and the Faculty of Health and Medical Sciences
  • Research-based teaching, including associated examination
  • Research leadership, including guidance and supervision of researchers
  • Obligation to share knowledge with the rest of society, including participation in public debate
  • Academic assessments

Required qualifications
To qualify for an Associate Professor or Professor position, you will be assessed according to these six overall criteria for recognising merit at the University of Copenhagen: research, teaching, societal impact, organisational contribution, external funding, and leadership.

Furthermore, the successful Associate Professor must be able to document:

  • Research-based teaching

The Associate Professor or Professor is also required to possess excellent interpersonal and communicative skills.

In considering applications for the Professorship or Associate Professorship, the main emphasis will be on the applicant’s ability to document an outstanding research and publication record, including the ability to attract research funding. The Center offers a supportive and vibrant scientific community, and the candidate should possess the ability to work collaboratively with other scientists and the scholarly qualities required for supervising graduate students.

Terms of employment
The position is a fixed-term position for a period of five years, with the scope for contract renewal.

Salary and other terms and conditions of appointment are set in accordance with the Agreement between the Ministry of Finance and AC (Danish Confederation of Professional Associations) or other relevant professional organisations.
