The University of Copenhagen’s Globe Institute is seeking a postdoctoral researcher to advance mass-spectrometry-based palaeoproteomics. The project targets ancient protein traces preserved in fossil material, including remains more than one million years old, with the goal of recovering longer and higher-quality amino-acid sequences for improved phylogenetic reconstruction of extinct hominids and other fossil taxa. The postdoc will develop novel workflows spanning sample preparation, chromatogr...

About this position

Nielsen Laboratory at Aarhus University is seeking a postdoctoral researcher to help develop next-generation mass spectrometry and proteomics technologies. The position is based in the Department of Molecular Biology and Genetics, where the group is building a growing research programme around advanced analytical methods for studying regulatory protein states, post-translational modifications, and cellular signalling.

The successful candidate will join an environment that combines state-of-the-art mass spectrometry with quantitative proteomics, analytical method development, peptide and protein chemistry, and PTM biology. The project is strongly technology-driven: the postdoc will work on creating and refining analytical workflows that improve sensitivity, robustness, reproducibility, and throughput in modern proteomics.

Research directions mentioned in the advert include advanced LC-MS/MS acquisition strategies, chromatographic optimisation, automated sample preparation, quantitative PTM proteomics, and new approaches for studying protein regulation. The role offers considerable scientific freedom, making it well suited to a researcher who wants to pursue innovative ideas and translate method development into high-impact publications.

The position also carries a group-building dimension. As an early member of a newly established laboratory at Aarhus University, the postdoc will contribute to shaping experimental capabilities, research directions, and collaborative projects while working in a broad interdisciplinary setting that connects proteomics with molecular biology, analytical chemistry, genome stability, structural biology, and enzymology.

The lab describes itself as having more than 15 years of internationally recognised research in regulatory proteomics, ADP-ribosylation biology, and mass spectrometry-based technology development, now expanded into a new Aarhus University setting with strong infrastructure and international links.

Funding details

Two-year postdoctoral appointment with possibility of extension; salary and terms according to the collective labour agreement at basic salary steps 4-8.

What's required

Applicants must hold a PhD in proteomics, analytical chemistry, biochemistry, molecular biology, biotechnology, or a closely related discipline. Strong demonstrated experience in developing, establishing, or optimizing mass spectrometry-based proteomics methodologies is required, with a first-author publication showing substantial methodological or technological development. Expertise in at least one area such as LC-MS/MS method development, chromatography, sample preparation, PTM proteomics, peptide/protein chemistry, or other innovative proteomics technologies is expected. Experience in data processing, bioinformatics, quantitative analysis, mammalian cell culture, tissues or clinical samples, automation, protein biochemistry, molecular biology, or R/Python is an advantage but not required. The application must be in English and include a CV, degree certificate, publication list, future research plans, research activities, teaching portfolio, and verified teaching experience if any.

How to apply

Submit the application through Aarhus University’s recruitment system from the job advertisement page. Prepare the required documents in English, including CV, degree certificate, publication list, research plans, and teaching information. Shortlisting will be used after the deadline.
