Description:

UNIVERSITY OF COPENHAGEN

We are looking for a highly motivated postdoc to join the Cvejic Lab with the commence date of January 15th 2025 or soon thereafter.
Information on the department can be found at: BRIC – University of Copenhagen (ku.dk)

YOUR JOB

You will have a strong scientific background in cell biology and epigenetics, and you will be able to demonstrate critical thinking within and beyond these areas. You will be hard working, passionate about science, and keen to learn and improve skills within a supportive research environment.
You will be involved in a project that aims to comprehensively dissect the molecular underpinnings of the haematopoietic stem cell state. To achieve this, the project will implement a CRISPR-Cas9 screen to interrogate a large number of targets and reveal the key factors that regulate important stem cell functions. The initial screen will be followed by extensive functional characterisation of candidates of interest, with the goal of gaining novel mechanistic insight into blood stem cell regulation.
You will be part of a multidisciplinary team and will be tasked with proactively seeking and maintaining appropriate collaborations. You will be expected to contribute to and support the ongoing research projects in the group on an ad-hoc basis when needed, working closely with biologists, clinicians and bioinformaticians within and outside the group to accomplish scientific objectives; disseminate your expertise to new lab members, participate in grant writing and be actively involved in scientific discussions within the lab.

PROFILE

We are looking for a highly motivated and enthusiastic postdoc with the following competencies and experience:

Essential experience and skills

  • A PhD in life sciences or related
  • Extensive experience in cell biology and epigenetics
  • Extensive experience in molecular biology techniques and cell culture
  • Extensive experience in flow cytometry
  • Extensive experience in gene editing by CRISPR-Cas9, preferably in a screening setup
  • An excellent research and publication track record
  • Highly organised
  • Excellent ability to effectively prioritise, multi-task and work independently
  • Excellent English skills, written and spoken

Desirable experience and skills

  • Experience in working with primary cells and patient-derived material
  • Experience in single cell genomics techniques (RNA-Seq, Multiomics)
  • Experience in tissue dissection and histology
