1. Postdoctoral Job
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
A rise in early-onset (age <40) type 2 diabetes has raised concerns due to its aggressive nature and poor prognosis. This project will address critical knowledge gaps regarding the causes and consequences of early-onset type 2 diabetes. It is based on a cohort consisting of the entire Swedish population with linkages between relatives and information from nationwide registers covering a 30-year time span together with biobank data for a subset. The project combines traditional cohort designs with family-based designs to minimize confounding and for familial aggregation and heritability studies.
Application Deadline: 31.Aug.2024
2. Postdoctoral Job
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
We have an opening for an individual wishing to join a multidisciplinary team aimed to understand the biochemical dysregulations that drive the development of asthma. Towards that end, the successful applicant will take the lead in analyzing multiple projects that involve integrating metabolomics and lipidomics data with other omics (e.g., proteomics, transcriptomics) as well as clinical phenotyping data. For examples of previous efforts, please see: PMID: 34824054, PMID: 35314841, PMID: 34737220, PMID: 32667261, PMID: 29545283, PMID: 30335973.

3. Postdoctoral Job
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
The postdoctoral fellow will determine how disease-relevant long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) regulate adipocyte insulin sensitivity and in turn metabolic health. This will be achieved by investigating human white adipose tissue (WAT) biopsies taken before and after systemic insulin infusion and couple these findings with state-of-the-art cellular models and in-house developed molecular approaches. This project aims to understand how lncRNAs contribute to the insulin response in adipocytes and discover novel targets that can be approached therapeutically.
Application Deadline: 31.Aug.2024
4. Postdoctoral Job
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
The project concerns customary areas of responsibility at postdoctoral level such as project design, data collection, processing, data analysis and statistical analysis. Writing scientific articles, research applications and communicating research results are important tasks. There is also some opportunity to design your own projects in the area. You should have your own motivation with good communication and cooperation skills and be able to work both inside and outside the academy. Important for the project is your ability to collaborate, which means collaborating with other researchers, students and clinical employees, as well as being able to lead and coordinate projects.
Application Deadline: 2024-09-01
5. Postdoctoral Job
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
Our lab is advancing precision medicine through deep learning models of cancer cells. The models are trained on high-throughput datasets, including metabolomics, proteomics, and transcriptomics, and constrained to align with the molecular networks within cells. This allows us to identify systems-level mechanisms in cancer that can be used to uncover new biomarkers, drug targets, and paths to drug resistance.
Application Deadline: 02.Sep.2024
6. Postdoctoral Job
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
The Schultzberg lab addresses fundamental questions in neuroinflammation with the aim to find new treatment targets in Alzheimer’s disease. Our studies build upon in vivo and in vitro models as well as on analysis of human clinical samples, in order to elucidate the molecular and cellular mechanisms for resolving neuroinflammation and regaining homeostasis in the brain. Resolution of inflammation in the brain is a relatively new research field and our studies aim to provide knowledge on the signals for resolving inflammation in the brain and whether stimulation or modulation of these is beneficial for neuronal functioning and eventually as a potential target for the treatment of patients.
Application Deadline: 05.Sep.2024
7. Postdoctoral Job
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
Artificial intelligence (AI) will change the daily work of doctors, make diagnoses more accurate and treatment choices more likely to succeed. Our group have hundreds of thousands of mammograms, thousands of ultrasound images and MRI exams, linked to clinical outcome data and radiologist image labels. We have collaborations with several medical AI companies whose commercial algorithms we can explore, along with academic research models. We have internal development of AI models in our group, and in collaboration with other universities in Sweden and in the United States.
Application Deadline: 05.Sep.2024
8. Postdoctoral Job
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
The Baranello Lab – Drawing from our expertise in the fields of topoisomerase and cancer biology, we aim to answer fundamental questions about how transcription, replication and DNA topology are functionally coordinated in human cells. We use state-of-the-art approaches to assess transcriptomic, epigenomic and replisomic profiles, as well as advanced microscopy and drug screens to understand how topoisomerase regulation affects fundamental nuclear processes (key lab references: Baranello et al. Cell 2016; Wiegard et al. Molecular Cell 2021; Das et al. Molecular Cell 2022; Cameron et al. Science Advances 2023). The overall aim is to reveal novel cancer therapy targets and improved strategies for personalized treatment.
Application Deadline: 05.Sep.2024
9. Postdoctoral Job
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
The project will encompass protein science including but not limited to expression, purification and assay development, biochemical as well as biophysical. Techniques may include (Nano)-DSF, MST, SPR, NMR, ITC and others. Expertise in studying post-translational modifications, such as glycosylation and methylation, as well as membrane proteins, expression in insect cells and some qualification in the solving of X-Ray or Cryo-EM structures is a big plus.
Application Deadline: 05.Sep.2024
10. Postdoctoral Job
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
We are seeking 1-2 postdoctoral fellows who will work on an exciting collaborative initiative aimed at investigating the behavioral language, physiological correlates, and molecular mechanisms responsible for the rapid-acting and long-term effects of various psychedelic compounds. The project is part of a recently awarded Karolinska Institutet Research Incubator (KIRI) project and applications are now invited for a co-supervised postdoctoral position in the Lopez (Department of Neuroscience, NEURO) and Lundberg (Department of Clinical Neuroscience, CNS) laboratories at Karolinska Institutet, Solna campus.
Application Deadline: 06.Sep.2024
11. Postdoctoral Job
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
The Larsson lab is a research group within the Department of Oncology-Pathology at Karolinska Institutet and is situated at the Science For Life Laboratory at the Solna Campus. The focus of the group is on achieving transcriptome-wide and detailed molecular understanding of how mRNA translation is dysregulated in disease. The lab has expertise in development of state-of-the-art methods for large-scale wet-lab studies of mRNA translation as well as development of computational tools to analyse the generated data. The post-doc will use advanced molecular biology approaches to generate large data sets quantifying various aspects of the mRNA translation process, which will be analysed to gain detailed mechanistic insights.
