About this position

Postdoctoral research opportunity at Karolinska Institutet in the Andersson Lab, where the project is centered on developmental lineage tracing of the embryonic brain and choroid plexus in mouse models.

The lab combines in utero nano-injection, genetic barcoding, single-cell sequencing, and advanced imaging to follow cell lineages directly in developing embryos. The project aims to clarify the developmental origins, diversification, and spatial organization of the choroid plexus and its relationship to surrounding neural tissues.

The successful candidate will work in the Department of Cell and Molecular Biology at Karolinska Institutet’s BioMedicum in Stockholm. The group studies mammalian developmental biology and regenerative medicine, with a particular emphasis on lineage tracing and genetic manipulation of early progenitor populations. Their methodological platform includes delivery of lentiviral vectors to embryonic tissues and integration of these approaches with transcriptomics, molecular analysis, and three-dimensional imaging.

Within this project, the postdoctoral researcher will investigate lineage relationships between the choroid plexus and neighboring brain territories, contributing to an effort to build a new framework for understanding how choroid plexus epithelial and associated cell populations arise and organize during development. The role is embedded in a collaborative and internationally connected research setting, with interaction across experimental and computational expertise. The position also includes manuscript preparation, presentation of research, and active participation in the laboratory environment.

Funding details

Postdoctoral scholarship; amount is tax free and set for twelve months at a time, paid out on a six months basis. In exceptional cases, shorter periods may be acceptable.

What's required

Applicants must have a PhD in developmental biology, cell biology, neuroscience, molecular biology, or a closely related field, or a foreign degree deemed equivalent to a doctorate. A strong background in embryonic brain development and/or choroid plexus biology is particularly relevant. Required experience includes mouse embryonic tissues (FELASA certification is meriting), developmental phenotyping, molecular biology, imaging, and the ability to plan and conduct rigorous experiments. Excellent English communication skills and the ability to work collaboratively are required. Experience with choroid plexus morphogenesis, epithelial development, neural progenitor biology, immunofluorescence, confocal microscopy, developmental signalling pathways, in vivo genetic manipulation, lentiviral methods, single-cell transcriptomics, or lineage tracing is advantageous. Applicants who have not yet completed the doctorate may apply if all requirements will be met before the intended start date.

How to apply

Prepare the application documents in English or Swedish: a complete CV, complete publication list, and a one-page summary of current work. Submit the application through the Varbi recruitment system using the provided application link.
