A post-doc position is available in the Dr. Knævelsrud project group within the Cancer Molecular Medicine group of Dr. Enserink at the Institute for Cancer Research, Division for Cancer Medicine from September 1, 2024 for 1 year.
The organization and research focus
The Cancer Molecular Medicine group is located at the Radium hospital, which is part of Oslo University Hospital, the largest academic hospital in Scandinavia. The group is a member of a Norwegian Centre of Excellence (Centre for Cancer Cell Reprogramming, CanCell), which consists of six research groups focused on unraveling molecular mechanisms of tumorigenesis.
One of the main research aims of the group is to better understand the biology of cancer, including the regulation of autophagy. The successful candidate will work with fruit fly models to understand how autophagy termination is orchestrated between different organs and tissues in a multicellular organism.
The location
The project will be carried out at the Institute of Basic Medical Sciences/ Domus Medica.
Oslo University Hospital is a workplace with great diversity. We believe this is essential to perform the tasks required of us. Therefore, we pursue diversity among our job applicants and encourage everyone to apply regardless of who you are and what background you have.
Job description
The candidate will perform experiments with Drosophila larvae to gain mechanistic understanding of key genes involved in autophagy termination. This project involves molecular biology, biochemistry, Drosophila genetics, high-content imaging, confocal imaging and autophagy assays. The candidate is expected to help complete ongoing experiments, prepare figures and a manuscript for submission.Requirements
We are looking for a talented, enthusiastic and determined person who can work both independently as well as in the context of a team. Potential candidates have completed a PhD degree in biology, medicine or related fields and have research experience beyond the PhD degree. The successful candidate is positive-minded, has good communication skills and is well organized.In-depth knowledge of autophagy is absolutely essential for this position, as well as experience with Drosophila genetics, dissection and microscopy, while experience with one or several of the following techniques or research areas is a distinct benefit: image analysis, metabolomics, cancer. Documented evidence of experience with autophagy and Drosophila in the form of previous publications is a strong positive benefit.
We offer
- A dynamic and exciting research theme in a positive, collaboration-minded research team with excellent opportunities for further academic development
A research environment with state of the art core facilities and excellent international network
Full-time one-year position
Attractive salary as stipulated by the guidelines from Oslo University Hospital
