About this position
Aalborg University is seeking a postdoctoral researcher in implementation science within lung medicine for a three-year, full-time position at the Department of Clinical Medicine. The postdoctoral researcher will join the newly established Center for Implementation Science and the Lung Medicine Research Unit at Aalborg University Hospital.
The research focuses on community engagement and implementation science in chronic lung disease, including chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), as well as environment and health. The role is designed for a researcher interested in interdisciplinary, practice-oriented research that responds to the needs and priorities of local communities.
The postdoctoral project will involve developing, implementing and evaluating innovative community-based interventions. The researcher will examine how evidence-based interventions can be translated, adapted, implemented and sustained in practice, while further developing methodological approaches in implementation science.
Community and stakeholder engagement is a central part of the work. Collaboration will involve citizens, patients, healthcare professionals, researchers and other relevant stakeholders, with the aim of ensuring that research reflects lived experience, local priorities and practical needs. Activities will include hypothesis development, literature reviews, research design, questionnaire development, data collection and management, data quality assurance, and qualitative, quantitative and mixed-methods analyses.
The researcher will also communicate findings through peer-reviewed publications, scientific presentations, stakeholder dialogue and accessible reports for local communities. Additional opportunities include contributing to funding and research applications, interdisciplinary collaboration, professional development and the development of a research profile in implementation science, community-engaged research and knowledge translation.
The position is based within Aalborg University's clinical research environment, where the Department of Clinical Medicine conducts research across clinical specialties and supports research-based teaching in medicine. The postdoctoral researcher will work in a growing and dynamic setting connected to Aalborg University Hospital and led in contact with Professor and Chief Physician Ulla Møller Weinreich.
The advertised position is a three-year full-time postdoctoral opportunity in Aalborg, Denmark.
