About this position

Linköping University is seeking a postdoctoral researcher for the LiLAC-HF project, a multicentre randomised controlled trial on heart failure management in Swedish primary care. The research evaluates a nurse-led programme that uses Remote Dielectric Sensing (ReDS), a non-invasive technology for monitoring lung-fluid levels and supporting early detection of worsening heart failure.

The postdoctoral researcher will coordinate the trial across participating primary-care centres in Sweden and manage study activities including data collection, interviews, and qualitative and quantitative analyses. The role also involves leading and contributing to scientific publications and disseminating findings on the effectiveness and implementation of the care model.

The accompanying process evaluation examines implementation and contextual factors that influence programme delivery. The project aims to improve patient outcomes, reduce hospital admissions and generate evidence for cardiovascular care, chronic disease management and community-based healthcare.

The researcher will join the Division of Nursing Sciences and Reproductive Health within the Department of Health, Medicine and Caring Sciences at Linköping University. Based at Campus Norrköping, the research team works in cardiovascular nursing, heart failure management, self-care and digital health, with national and international collaborations through the CESAR Network.

The position offers opportunities for scientific development, collaboration, publications, grant applications and future research projects. Some teaching may be included, up to 20% of working hours.

Funding details

This is a full-time, fixed-term appointment for three years. Salary is individually set under applicable collective agreements. The position includes employment benefits. The postdoctoral researcher may spend 6–12 months at a higher education institution abroad, funded by the Högbom-Cocozza Research Foundation.

What's required

Applicants must have a doctoral degree or an equivalent foreign doctoral degree by the employment decision, preferably awarded no more than three years before the application deadline unless special reasons apply.
