About this position

KTH Royal Institute of Technology is recruiting a postdoc in virome-wide serology and pandemic preparedness. The project is led by Axel Olin at KTH and is part of a research program funded by the Swedish Research Council.

The research focuses on understanding how viral infections spread through populations, how individuals differ in their antibody responses, and how this knowledge can improve future infectious disease surveillance. The postdoc will establish and optimize PhIP-seq and other high-throughput serological assays in the lab, with work spanning molecular biology, immunology, assay development, cloning, PCR, sequencing, and serological analysis. The project also connects to innovative blood self-sampling approaches and population-scale studies of antiviral immunity in Sweden.

This is a multidisciplinary environment involving collaborators in immunology, affinity proteomics, epidemiology, and computational biology. The role is especially suitable for candidates interested in infectious disease biology, translational research, and method development with clear public-health relevance.

Eligibility highlights: a doctoral degree or equivalent foreign degree is required by the time of the employment decision. Strong background in molecular biology, immunology, genetics, or a related field is expected. Hands-on experience with cloning, PCR, sequencing, western blotting, and bacterial culture is important; phage display experience is a merit. A PhD obtained within the last three years is preferred, and experience in human immunology and serological analysis is also advantageous.

Funding and terms: the position is a temporary full-time postdoc appointment for up to two years. The announcement mentions a monthly salary; no stipend amount is provided.

Application window: published 2026-05-11, with a deadline of 2026-06-10.

How to apply: submit the application in KTH’s recruitment system. Include a CV, copies of diplomas and grades, translations if needed, and a brief two-page statement describing your research motivation, academic interests, and future goals.

Funding details

The postdoc is part of a research program funded by the Swedish Research Council. The position is a temporary full-time appointment for up to two years, with monthly salary; no stipend amount is stated.

What's required

Applicants must hold a doctoral degree or an equivalent foreign degree by the time the employment decision is made. The ideal candidate has research expertise in molecular biology, immunology, genetics, or a related field, with hands-on experience in cloning, PCR, sequencing, western blotting, bacterial culture, and preferably phage display. Experience in human immunology and serological analysis is preferred. Candidates should be able to work independently and collaboratively in a multidisciplinary environment, and awareness of diversity and equal opportunity issues is expected. A doctoral degree obtained within the last three years is a preferred qualification.
