About this position

This postdoctoral fellowship is based at the Novo Nordisk Foundation Center for Basic Metabolic Research at the University of Copenhagen, where the successful candidate will join an interdisciplinary and highly collaborative environment focused on cardiometabolic health.

The project sits at the intersection of wearable data science, multi-omics integration, and machine learning. It will use high-resolution continuous glucose monitoring and other digital health streams, together with genomics and additional omics layers, to study how glucose regulation varies between individuals and how these differences relate to cardiometabolic risk, disease progression, treatment response, and complications.

The postdoc will work on developing new statistical and machine-learning methods for long, high-frequency glucose sequences, including interpretable deep-learning approaches. A central aim is to move beyond standard summary metrics and identify distinct patterns of glucose elevation that may reveal subtypes within type 2 diabetes. The project also extends to integrating physical activity, sleep, diet, and heart-rate data with molecular profiles to uncover disease markers and pathways.

The position is located in the Merino Group and will be carried out in collaboration with SMARTbiomed, an international collaboration linking Aarhus University, the University of Oxford, and the University of Copenhagen. The wider environment at CBMR combines genetics, physiology, pharmacology, and single-cell genomics within an international research setting at the Maersk Tower, PANUM Institute.

A key outcome of the fellowship will be open-source software that can support both research and clinical communities working with these data types.
