About the Position

We are seeking a highly motivated and dynamic postdoctoral researcher to join our team at the Novo Nordisk Foundation Center for Protein Research (CPR). The successful candidate will work in the Chromatin Replication and Epigenome Maintenance research group headed by Prof. Anja Groth.

Research Focus

The focus of our group is to elucidate how chromatin organization and function is propagated during mitotic cell division to maintain genome and epigenome stability. Our goal is to understand mechanisms that underpin chromatin replication and epigenetic cell memory, and how they impact on cell fate decisions in development and disease.

Key Responsibilities
  • Develop new epigenetic approaches for cancer treatment
  • Use genome-editing approaches and state-of-the-art genomics to address how modulation of chromatin assembly impacts epigenetic landscapes and genome function in relevant cancer models
  • Contribute to our other ongoing projects and supervision of students
Requirements
  • PhD in Life science, biochemistry, molecular cell biology, cancer biology or related
  • Background in epigenetics and cancer biology
  • Expertise in next-generation sequencing (NGS) approaches and data analysis
  • Collaborative and inclusive mindset and curiosity driven nature
  • Good communication and organization skills
  • Excellent English skills written and spoken
About the Employer

The employment is at CPR, a Novo Nordisk Foundation center of excellence established in 2007 and embedded in the Faculty of Health and Medical Sciences, University of Copenhagen. The Center comprises modern laboratories, supercomputer resources and state-of-the-art facilities within protein science and genomics.

Working Environment

CPR is an interdisciplinary international environment with English as the main language. We are located in central Copenhagen, a city with one of the highest qualities of life in the world and a vibrant and highly interactive research environment.
