About this position

Jan Johansson’s research group at Karolinska Institutet is seeking a postdoctoral researcher to join work on how proteins are transported across biological barriers. The project is based at the Department of Medicine Huddinge within the Center for Reproduction, Metabolism and Molecular Medicine, and is linked to the Laboratory for Bioinspired Protein Drugs and Technologies.

The research focuses on a molecular chaperone and how it is transported across biological barriers. The longer-term goal is to use these findings to develop a transporter for biological macromolecules across the blood-brain barrier. The successful candidate will work on experimental questions at the interface of cell biology, protein transport, and translational biomedicine.

The postdoc will independently design, perform, and interpret experiments aimed at understanding how proteins pass biological barriers in cell and animal models. The advertised work includes studies in culture systems and brain tissue, with a strong experimental emphasis and direct engagement with the group’s biomedical research environment.

The position is situated in a creative, internationally oriented research setting at Karolinska Institutet, where interdisciplinary collaboration is part of the scientific environment. The role is located in Flemingsberg.

What's required

A PhD or an equivalent foreign degree that is assessed as corresponding to a Swedish doctoral degree is required and must be completed by the time the appointment decision is made. Applicants should have very strong experience with animal experiments, especially in mouse and rat, light microscopy combined with immunofluorescence methods on cultured cells and brain tissue, quantification of macromolecules in different organs, and protein biochemical methods. Very good spoken and written English and strong collaboration skills are expected. The position also values the ability to work independently, a genuine documented research interest, and the capacity to conduct high-quality experimental biomedical research. It is meritorious to have completed the PhD within the last three years, unless there are special reasons.

How to apply

Apply through the Varbi recruitment system. Submit proof of your doctoral degree, a complete CV including dissertation date, thesis title, previous academic positions, academic title, current position, academic distinctions and committee work, a complete publication list, and a summary of your current work of up to one page.
