About this position
The Department of Biology at the University of Copenhagen is seeking a postdoctoral researcher to join a newly established group studying how cells coordinate their behaviour to maintain and repair tissues. The project focuses on human skin biology and wound healing, with an emphasis on how planar cell polarity (PCP) shapes tissue organization in the human epidermis.
The successful candidate will help establish reconstructed human epidermis (RHE) as an experimental model for studying PCP signalling in skin. The work combines model development, advanced imaging, and quantitative analysis to examine PCP clusters, their polarization, and how they change during wound repair and in response to stressors.
This is a central role in a new research programme, offering the chance to help shape experimental strategy and contribute to the scientific direction of the group from the outset. The project is supported by collaborators with expertise in RHE development and provides access to confocal and advanced microscopy platforms, including SIM, TIRF, and STED.
The position is based in the Section for Cell Biology and Physiology at the Department of Biology, Faculty of Science, University of Copenhagen. The role includes experimental development, microscopy workflows, data analysis, manuscript preparation, conference presentation, and contributing to a collaborative lab environment as the group grows.
The project is framed around fundamental questions in cell and developmental biology with clear relevance to regenerative medicine and skin repair.
Funding details
Fully funded for at least 2 years, with the possibility of extension, through generous funding from the LEO Foundation. Monthly salary starts at 35,000 DKK (approx. 4,700 EUR) plus negotiated supplement and 17.1% employer pension contribution.
What's required
A PhD in cell biology, developmental biology, skin biology, molecular biology, tissue engineering, biophysics, or a closely related field by the time of appointment is required. Applicants should have extensive hands-on experience in mammalian cell culture, demonstrated ability to independently establish, optimize, and troubleshoot experimental protocols, experience in fluorescence microscopy and immunofluorescence staining, evidence of scientific independence and initiative, a solid publication record appropriate for career stage, and excellent written and spoken English. Desirable experience includes human keratinocyte culture, reconstructed human epidermis or other 3D epithelial models, complex cell-culture protocol development, quantitative image analysis with Fiji/ImageJ or Python, CRISPR/Cas9 or RNA interference, confocal or advanced microscopy such as SIM, TIRF, or STED, and mentoring or supervision experience.
