Postdoctoral Fellow in Proteomics and Genetics

5 days ago


Copenhagen, Copenhagen, Denmark Københavns Universitet Full time

The University of Copenhagen is seeking a highly motivated and talented Postdoc fellow to work on a project that will integrate high-throughput mass spectrometry (MS)-based plasma proteomics data with electronic health registry data, along with genetic information from 4,180 Greenlandic individuals.

About Us

The Novo Nordisk Foundation Center for Basic Metabolic Research (CBMR) is an academic research center that combines research in genetics, physiology, and pharmacology to understand the complex interplay of factors that drive cardiometabolic disease.

We aim to transform the basic understanding of cardiometabolic health and accelerate its translation into prevention and treatment strategies.

Job Responsibilities
  • Examine baseline and longitudinal associations between the MS-based plasma proteome and cardiometabolic disease outcomes using registry-based data.
  • Perform a Genome-Wide Association Study (GWAS) of the MS-based plasma proteome to identify protein quantitative trait loci (pQTLs).
  • Examine the overlap between pQTLs and cardiometabolic disease-associated risk variants using colocalization methods.

Required Qualifications

We are looking for a candidate with a PhD in bioinformatics, computational biology, or similar field. The candidate should have experience in applying statistical methods to proteomic and/or genomic data and proficiency in a high-level programming language such as R or Python.
