Postdoctoral Fellow in Stem Cell Proteomics

Do you want to contribute to top quality medical research?

Division of Physiological Chemistry I stems from the laboratory of Jöns Jacob Berzelius (1779- 1848), the great Swedish scientist and the first Chemistry professor at KI. Among other achievements, Berzelius pioneered mass measurements in Chemistry, having published in 1818 a table of accurate weights of 45 out of the 49 known elements. Continuing Berzelius’ tradition, the Division bases its research on mass spectrometry. It also hosts a cell lab, a stem cell lab and two proteomics core facilities.

Your mission and duties

You will work closely with stem cell researchers and proteomics core facility staff. Your duty will be to participate in the development of novel proteomics approaches to address various biomedically important issues, as well as in the ongoing research projects requiring the use of stem cells and proteomics.

Your profile

Qualified to be employed as a postdoctor is one who has obtained a doctorate or has equivalent scientific competence. It is considered as an advantage if you have completed your doctoral degree within the last three years, if there are special reasons, your degree may have been completed earlier. Applicants who have not completed a doctorate at the end of the application period may also apply, provided that all requirements for a completed degree are met before the (intended) date of employment. This must be substantiated by the applicant's main supervisor, director or equivalent.
