Find dit MSCA Postdoctoral Fellowship

Det sundhedsvidenskabelige fakultet Health på Aarhus Universitet byder på flere muligheder for at udføre forskning på højt niveau i et inspirerende og ambitiøst miljø.

Kontakt venligst vejlederen på det relevante projekt. Hvis der er et match, kan I sammen ansøge om MSCA Postdoctoral Fellowship-finansiering (EU-deadline september 2023).

Institut for Biomedicin

Post-ischemic brain insufficiency

A neurovascular component of futile reperfusion after ischemic stroke

This is translational research that is based on various rodent models of AIS but is aligned with the studies from our clinical collaborators and thus, includes patient data.

Supervisor: Associate Professor Vladimir Matchkov

Parkinson's and SARS-COV2

Is Parkinson's Disease triggered and exacerbated by SARS-COV2 infection?

We have expertise in virology, immunology, neuropathology and neurodegenerative diseases. We seek a researcher interested in immune response in the brain, cell culture and iPSC.

Supervisor: Associate Professor Marina Romero-Ramos

Cardiovascular and bone health

Regulation of phosphaturic hormones by dietary potassium

In this project the overarching goal is to determine if various endocrine factors mediate crosstalk between dietary K intake, the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system, and bone-cardiovascular health.

Supervisor: Professor Robert Fenton

Metabolic kidney protection

Target discovery and mode of action of bioactive metabolites

The aim of the study is to merge clinical, physiological, spatial and chemical information to determine which protective metabolites matter most for kidney and cardiovascular health.

Supervisor: Associate Professor Markus Rinschen

Translational molecular medicine

The impact of obesity on the resistance to cancer treatment

We are looking for candidates with qualifications within e.g. biomedical research, endothelial cell biology or tumor biology, cell biology and biochemistry. Experience with flow cytometry analyses, tumour mouse models, and patient-derived organoids is also advantageous.

Supervisor: Associate Professor Joanna Maria Kalucka

Institut for Klinisk Medicin

Translational biotechnology

Decoding tissues to understand human disease

Candidates interested in wet-lab work (especially tissue processing and microscopy) and/or dry-lab work (especially deep learning) are welcome to apply and discuss potential projects.

Supervisor: Professor Victor Puelles

Protective treatments of stroke

Extracellular vesicles and vascularized organoid stroke models

We are looking for expertise and skills in organoid models including experience in working with human IPSCs. Knowledge of microscopic techniques is an advantage as well as techniques in cell characterization and isolation.

Supervisor: Associate Professor Kim Ryun Drasbek

Virtual microscopy with diffusion MRI

Imaging the microstructure of brain gray matter

MRI Virtual Microscopy of grey matter could have significant impact for early diagnosis and understanding of diseases involving cortical tissue or deep gray matter nuclei, such as ALS and Parkinson. The aim of a postdoc in this project would be to advance MVM of gray matter.

Supervisor: Professor Sune Jespersen

A biomarker-driven and risk-adapted interventional approach

Novel subtype-specific outcome predictors in T-cell lymphomas

This is a clinical trial evaluating a circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA)-based minimal residual disease (MRD) approach and a randomized biomarker-driven post-induction maintenance in patients with newly diagnosed TCL of all entities, ages and frailty groups.

Supervisor: Professor Francesco Annibale D'Amore

Data linkage and computer science

Reducing burden on future generations of children and adolescents with hip dysplasia

We will develop clinical prediction rules for periacetabular osteotomies in adolescents and young adults with hip dysplasia using innovative, cutting edge data linkage and modelling.

Supervisor: Professor Inger Mechlenburg

Tolerance induction in allergy

Signal transduction and cellular responses induced by allergen immunotherapy

Injection of allergen into inguinal lymph nodes modulates the adaptive immune response. We seek to explore this field with a postdoc with research experience in e.g. cellular allergy.

Supervisor: Professor Hans Jürgen Hoffmann

Institut for Odontologi og Oral Sundhed

Dental sleep medicine

Unveiling the physiological mechanisms in dental sleep disorders

We are looking for a researcher in his/her early career in dental sleep medicine. Our group would like to use all the expertise generated in the field to create new knowledge that may help to unveil the mechanisms involved in dental sleep disorders.

Supervisor: Associate Professor Eduardo Castrillon

Institut for Retsmedicin

Molecular pharmacology of depression

Can sterol-like modulate the function of a target for antidepressants?

We wish to understand how cholesterol-like compounds circulating in the body or ingested could affect mood and depression treatment.

Supervisor: Associate Professor Steffen Sinning

Institut for Folkesundhed

Sustainable long-term care services

Financing needs and options for sustainable long-term care services in lower-middle income countries

Do you have skills in econometric and microsimulation analysis of public policies in health or social care, and expertise in social protection and public finance in developing countries?

Supervisor: Associate Professor Ulrika Enemark
