About this position

This postdoctoral position is based at the Department of Pharmacy at Uppsala University, within an interdisciplinary research environment with strong expertise in pharmaceutical science, biological medicines, and translational drug development. The department brings together research groups working across pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics, pharmaceutics, clinical pharmacy, advanced drug delivery, and biological drugs, creating a setting where therapeutics can be developed from concept through to preclinical evaluation.

The project centers on AAV-based therapies for Alzheimer’s disease and other neurodegenerative disorders. The successful candidate will work on the design, production, and characterization of AAV vectors and on evaluating therapeutic strategies in vitro and in vivo. The research group focuses on biologic therapies for neurodegenerative diseases, with particular attention to Alzheimer’s disease and Parkinson’s disease, and also works with protein- and antibody-based drugs alongside AAV-based gene therapy.

The role is strongly experimental and preclinical in nature, with biopharmaceutical design and in vivo studies forming the core of the work. Depending on the selected candidate’s experience, responsibilities may be adjusted to some extent, and some teaching and administrative tasks may also be included. The position offers the opportunity to contribute to research aimed at developing novel therapeutic strategies within a prominent academic department at Uppsala University.

What's required

A PhD in a relevant field such as molecular biology, biotechnology, gene therapy, neuroscience, or a related discipline is required, and the degree must be obtained by the time of the employment decision. Applicants should preferably have completed their PhD no more than three years before the application deadline, though this period may be extended for special circumstances such as sick leave, parental leave, or union duties. Candidates must have experience in experimental work within molecular biology, gene therapy, biologics, or a related field, must be willing to work with animal experiments, and ideally have experience with AAV vector design and optimization, AAV production/purification/characterization, molecular cloning, expression vector construction, gene therapy strategy development, AAV and protein purification (e.g. ÄKTA systems), sterile cell culture, ELISA, flow cytometry/FACS, in vivo experiments, neurodegenerative diseases, and teaching. Strong communication, teamwork, independence, initiative, and motivation are important.
