  Job description

  A three year Fellowship position (position code 1352) for a Postdoctoral Research Fellow is available at the Department of Medical Genetics on the project entitled The regulatory role of genetic risk factors for autoimmune diseases on thymic antigen presenting cells and self-tolerance, which is financed by the Research Council of Norway.

  The project anchored in the research group Genetics of Autoimmunity and cancer led by Professor Benedicte A. Lie. For more details about the group, please visit the web site at https://www.med.uio.no/klinmed/english/research/groups/autoimmunity-cancer/index.html.

  More about the position

  The objective of the project is to reveal the regulatory role of autoimmune risk variants in human thymic antigen presenting cells by cellular, transcriptomic and epigenetic characterization of existing cell populations in the human thymus. Next, the correlations between risk alleles and expression profiles, alternative splicing and the binding of key transcription factors will be explored employing a variety of advanced wet-lab techniques including conventional and single-cell RNA-sequencing and ChIP-seq, as well as biostatistics and bioinformatics analyses.

  The Postdoctoral research fellow is expected to take active part in the research cooperation within the project and to co-supervise the PhD student employed on the same research project. The fellow will be supported to acquire qualifications promoting their current and future work in higher academic positions within their disciplines. The fellow will be encouraged to take bioinformatics and biostatistics trainings, and to present their research regularly both in the department and at International scientific conferences.

  The main objective of appointment to the position of Postdoctoral Fellow is to qualify researchers for work in top academic positions within their respective area of study. No one can be appointed for more than one specified period as a Postdoctoral research Fellow at the same institution. Please also refer to the regulations pertaining to the conditions of employment for Postdoctoral research Fellows.

  Proven experience with bioinformatics analysis of next generation sequencing data and competent with multiple tools (Java, R, Python, Perl, confident working with Linux, experience with RNA-seq analysis (BWA, Bowtie, Star, Samtools, Bedtools, DE-seq, etc.)

  Skills in biostatistics analyses, as well as laboratory skills with molecular biology methods, are an advantage.

  Demonstrated experience in scientific writing, working with graphical software (Illustrator, Photoshop or Coral draw), scientific presentations, and preferably also in supervising students.

  Knowledge in immunology and autoimmunity will be an asset.

  The candidate must be fluent in written and spoken English.

  Personal skills

  We are looking for highly motivated, hard-working and organized candidates with ability to work both alone and in team.
