About this position

A 6-month full-time Research Fellow position is available in a project on cell-based therapy for inherited bleeding disorders at the University of Oslo, affiliated with the Institute of Clinical Medicine, Division of Cancer Medicine, and carried out in daily work at Oslo University Hospital, Rikshospitalet.

The project is funded by the Norwegian Research Council and focuses on inherited factor VII (FVII) deficiency, a rare but serious bleeding disorder caused by mutations in the F7 gene. The research applies advanced approaches including CRISPR-based gene editing, induced pluripotent stem cells, and liver organoids to rescue FVII expression in patient-derived cells.

The successful candidate will support ongoing experimental work and data analysis within in vivo pre-clinical studies, contributing to a translational research pipeline aimed at future cell-based therapies for patients with FVII deficiency. The group has long-standing expertise in basic, translational, and clinical research on blood coagulation factors and their role in disease.

Applicants should hold a PhD or equivalent in medical sciences. The position is based in Oslo, Norway, and applications must be submitted through the official Jobbnorge portal by 7 October 2026 at 23:00 (Europe/Oslo).
