Copenhagen, Copenhagen, Denmark Københavns Universitet Full time

The University of Copenhagen is a leading academic research institution that pioneers groundbreaking research towards better cardiometabolic health. Our research aims to transform the basic understanding of cardiometabolic health and accelerate its translation into prevention and treatment strategies.

Job Description

We are 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. The Postdoc will 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.

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.

Our Research

In the molecular understanding of metabolic diseases, a major gap exists between basic genetic and microbiome discoveries and their impact on physiology and clinical translation. We aim to bridge this gap by connecting genomic discoveries and epidemiology with physiology and clinical application.
