The Institute of Marine Research (IMR) in Norway is recruiting a full-time postdoctoral researcher for a three-year position in marine ecological modelling. The role is part of the Horizon Europe-funded MORSE project, which develops effective and climate-resilient restoration models for European marine ecosystems. The researcher will contribute to work packages covering restoration pathways, ecological needs of focal species and habitats, favourable reference areas, species distribution modellin...

The Norwegian University of Life Sciences (NMBU), through the Faculty of Chemistry, Biotechnology and Food Science (KBM), is recruiting a postdoctoral fellow in photobiocatalysis and AI-based protein design. The three-year, full-time position is located at the NMBU campus in Ås, Norway, with a possible extension to four years including teaching. The project aims to design entirely new enzymes that use light to drive selective chemical reactions in water under mild conditions, reducing reliance o...

Karolinska Institutet is recruiting a Postdoctoral Researcher in Dementia and Chronic Disease Research to join the Unit of Cardiovascular and Nutritional Epidemiology at the Institute of Environmental Medicine in Solna, Sweden. The research focuses on identifying modifiable and biological determinants of dementia and other chronic diseases through large-scale longitudinal cohorts integrating questionnaire, genetic, omics, biomarker, and register-based data. Dementia will be the primary outcome. ...

Professor Pratyush Tiwary at the University of Maryland is hiring a postdoctoral researcher to work on RNA-focused research at the intersection of artificial intelligence, machine learning, and chemistry . The opportunity highlights applications involving antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs), siRNA, and CRISPR . Candidates with expertise in both AI/ML and RNA are ideal, but strong expertise in either area is welcome. The role may be particularly suitable for researchers interested in combining comp...

A Japanese lab is recruiting two postdoctoral researchers for a digital twin and personal health record (PHR) application designed to predict health conditions. The recruitment is divided into two research categories: ELSI and social acceptability research , including humanities, social sciences, and psychology; and cognitive function testing and measurement conducted through dialogue with citizens. The work combines digital health, health data, citizen engagement, psychology, medical measuremen...

Hongpeng Jia’s lab at Johns Hopkins University is hiring for two postdoctoral research openings in biomedical and biological sciences. One position focuses on developmental immunology, hyperinflammatory responses, and interventions. The second explores microplastic-induced intestinal epithelial injury, mechanisms of repair, and prevention. These projects may suit researchers interested in immunology, inflammatory biology, intestinal biology, epithelial tissue injury, environmental exposure, and ...
