About this position

This PhD position is in medical science at Linköping University and is embedded in a research group working on the modulation and pharmacology of proton-activated chloride channels. The project addresses ion channels that have attracted attention as promising drug targets in areas such as ischemic stroke, cancer and viral entry into cells.

The doctoral student will work on understanding how these channels function and how small molecules can modulate their activity. The research combines molecular manipulation and expression of ion channels in different cell types with functional characterization using electrophysiology and fluorescence-based techniques. The project also includes screening of candidate modulatory compounds.

The work is carried out in a research environment connected to the Medical Faculty at Linköping University and the Wallenberg Centre for Molecular Medicine, with collaborations that include computational biology groups. The position offers a combination of hands-on experimental work and data analysis, and the student will be expected to develop the project, present results at conferences and publish in scientific journals.

The appointment is linked to doctoral education, and the research training may also include teaching or other departmental duties.

Funding details

Doctoral employment with a starting salary of 33,700 SEK/month (2026 salary level), adjusted annually and after 30% and 60% of doctoral studies.

What's required

A master's degree in biology, biomedicine, pharmacology or a closely related subject equivalent to at least 240 higher education credits, including at least 60 credits of advanced courses in cell biology or related subjects, or equivalent knowledge acquired otherwise. Required experience and skills include molecular biology techniques such as mutagenesis, PCR and DNA/RNA purification, basic knowledge of ion channels, ability to independently plan, organize and document experiments, and very good spoken and written English. Meritorious qualifications include prior knowledge of ligand-gated ion channels, electrophysiological techniques such as patch-clamp or two-electrode voltage clamp, expression of ion channels in Xenopus laevis, peptide design/synthesis/purification, and screening of chemical compounds or drug-development workflows.
