瑞典于默奥大学2021年招聘博士后职位（分子细菌感染生物学）

Post Doctor (2 Years) Within Molecular Bacterial Infection Biology

Umea University

Description

The postdoc will work in the laboratory of Prof Maria Fällman. Studies in the lab study molecular mechanisms in bacterial gastrointestinal pathogens important for the ability of these pathogens to establish and maintain persistent infections in presence of competing microbiota and an active immune system, mainly using Yersinia pseudotuberculosis and Salmonella enterica as model pathogens. The focus of the postdoc project is to reveal new knowledge of bacterial regulatory mechanisms and you will be responsible for and execute wet lab experiments and extensive bioinformatic analyzes of NGS data. It will involve work with bacteria including RNA/ChIP/Ribo-seq and exploration of data utilizing diverse bioinformatic tools also including machine learning approaches.

Further details are provided by maria.fallman@umu.se.

Qualifications

You must hold a University degree equivalent to a European University Doctoral degree in medical science with a focus on molecular biology at the time of recruitment. A person who has been awarded a doctorate or a foreign qualification deemed to be the equivalent of a doctorate qualifies for employment as a postdoctoral fellow. Priority should be given to candidates who have completed their doctoral degree no more than three years before the closing date of the application. A candidate who has completed their degree prior to this may be considered if special circumstances exist. Special circumstances include absence due to illness, parental leave or clinical practice, appointments of trust in trade unions or similar circumstances. Postdoctoral fellows who are to teach or supervise must have taken relevant courses in teaching and learning in higher education.

Experience with programming in R, python and Java, working in the LINUX/UNIX environment, and in-depth analyses of different types of NGS data from bacteria, including RNA-Seq and ChIP-Seq data as well as experience in development of tools and pipeline for NGS data analysis in conda and docker environments are required. Previous training and experience from work with bacteria, using molecular biology techniques and work with mouse infection models are also required. Experience from work with RNA-, ChIP- and Ribo-seq in bacteria is a strong merit, as well as multivariate data analysis experience for Proteomics and training in machine learning. Experience from supervision of under-graduate students in both laboratory and bioinformatic matters is also a merit. The candidate is expected to be highly motivated, and to have excellent skills in oral and written English, strong work ethics and critical thinking abilities.
