Cardiometabolic Disease Investigator

3 days ago


Copenhagen, Copenhagen, Denmark Københavns Universitet Full time

We are looking for a talented Postdoctoral Research Fellow to join the Hansen Group at the Novo Nordisk Foundation Center for Basic Metabolic Research. As a key member of our team, you will play a crucial role in advancing our understanding of cardiometabolic diseases.

About the Role

You will be responsible for examining the relationship between the plasma proteome and cardiometabolic disease outcomes using registry-based data. This will involve performing GWAS of the MS-based plasma proteome to identify protein quantitative trait loci (pQTLs) and examining the overlap between pQTLs and cardiometabolic disease-associated risk variants using colocalization methods.

Requirements and Qualifications
  • PhD in bioinformatics, computational biology, statistical genomics, or a related field.
  • Proficiency in a high-level programming language such as R or Python.
  • Experience in applying statistical methods to proteomic and/or genomic data.
  • Experience working with large genomic datasets.
