About this position
Malmö University invites applications for a doctoral project in biomedical science focused on transforming oral fluids—primarily saliva—into reliable materials for non-invasive laboratory diagnostics. The project addresses a central challenge in multi-omics research: ensuring that disease signatures and biomarkers remain reproducible across sampling, laboratory processing, analysis, and interpretation.
The doctoral researcher will establish and validate standardized workflows for metabolomics and proteomics of oral fluids. The work will span method development, optimization of bioanalytical procedures, analytical validation, clinical application, and targeted validation of candidate biomarkers. Periodontitis will serve as a model inflammatory disease, allowing the project to connect molecular measurements with clinically relevant diagnostic questions.
Activities will include collecting, handling, and preparing oral-fluid samples; coordinating omics-based analyses; applying analytical chemistry and clinical laboratory methods; and integrating and interpreting complex biological data. The researcher will contribute to translating these findings into standardized laboratory workflows that may support future clinical diagnostics.
The project sits at the intersection of biomedical laboratory science, clinical diagnostics, analytical chemistry, and data-driven medicine. It is based in the Department of Biomedical Science within Malmö University's Faculty of Health and Society, an interdisciplinary environment combining biology, chemistry, medicine, and physics. The department collaborates closely with healthcare services and industry.
The work is connected to the Biofilms Research Center for Biointerfaces, where researchers from health, odontology, and technology-related fields collaborate at the interface of life sciences and materials science. It is also part of BioLabX, a national biomedical laboratory science research school linking Malmö University with the University of Gothenburg, Karolinska Institutet, Linköping University, Umeå University, Uppsala University, and Örebro University. Through this network, the doctoral researcher will engage with doctoral students, supervisors, and teachers working across laboratory medicine and clinical physiology.
The opening offers a research environment centered on reproducible multi-omics, biomarker discovery and validation, oral-fluid diagnostics, and interdisciplinary biomedical laboratory research.

What's required
Applicants must meet the general and specific doctoral-study entry requirements. They must hold a second-cycle qualification, or have completed at least 240 credits including at least 60 credits at second-cycle level, or possess substantially equivalent knowledge. Specific requirements include at least 90 ECTS in a relevant subject, including 30 ECTS at advanced level, adequate English proficiency, and either a Swedish biomedical laboratory scientist license (BMA-legitimation) or a Bachelor's degree in biomedical laboratory science. Applicants with foreign degrees must document equivalence to a Swedish Bachelor's degree through UHR, Socialstyrelsen, or another competent authority. Relevant experience in bioanalytical method development, biological sample handling, sample preparation, analytical validation, clinical laboratory diagnostics, omics analyses, chromatography, mass spectrometry, immunological or other bioanalytical methods, and statistical or complex-data analysis is advantageous. Very good spoken and written English, independence, initiative, flexibility, and ability to work in an interdisciplinary environment are also valued. The application must include a CV, diplomas and transcripts, relevant certificates and equivalence documentation where applicable, a research plan of no more than four pages, and independent advanced-level work such as a master's thesis or equivalent.
