Eligibility/Qualification–

Essential experience and skills:

A PhD involving proteomic, lipidomic and/or glycomic analysis using mass spectrometry-based techniques and skills in data analysis/bioinformatics.
Postdoctoral experience in conducting cell culture and/or bacterial culture with analysis by flow cytometry and microscopy approaches (e.g. confocal fluorescence, TIRF, FLIM or similar).
Experience in the supervision and/or training of Masters students or PhD students.
Your publication record will reflect the above elements and will demonstrate your ability to complete projects to a publishable stage and to adopt a high level of responsibility for publishing the outcomes.
Demonstrated experience in working in teams, preferably in a laboratory leadership role will be essential.
You have an active interest in working with teams and get a buzz out of providing essential elements across a number of projects to enable their completion. You may be involved in a diverse range of projects, not necessarily leading them but taking responsibility for the biological elements within the group and sharing the outcomes.
A commitment to working within health and safety rules, and encouraging initiatives to improve workspace safety and environment.
Proficient communication skills and ability to work in teams.
Excellent English written and spoken skills with Swedish being an advantage.

Desirable experience and skills:

Having played a major role in or leading a project on protein corona formation with nanoparticles would be a huge advantage.
Experience in presenting research at international conferences in English
Advanced electron microscopy experience (e.g. cryo-TEM, cryo-FESEM) would be advantageous.
Development of new techniques to understand the interaction of particles with cells.
Experience in preparation and characterisation of pharmaceutically-relevant dispersed particle systems, such as suspensions, emulsions, liposomes, polymer particles etc.
As part of an interdisciplinary team that conducts experiments at major infrastructure, you may be requested to assist with studies out of hours/overnight and experience or an interest to participate will be viewed favourably.
Formal training in personality types and relationships within teams (e.g. Myers Briggs, Five Voices or similar) is also desirable.

Job/Position Description-

Postdoc in Structured Biointerfaces at Department of Pharmacy – composition focussed position

University of Copenhagen is looking for a researcher for a three year position.
The position will bring skills in cell culture/bacteriology and compositional analysis to the Structured Biointerfaces group.
The group aims to improve the understanding of the surface of particles in physiological environments for improved performance of formulated products across a range of fields including the pharmaceutical and food industries.
You will have an outward looking collaborative mindset, willing to interact with researchers in adjacent and tangential fields to make the most of this opportunity.
You have an active interest in working in teams and get a buzz out of providing essential elements of projects to enable their completion.
You may be involved in a diverse range of projects, not necessarily leading them but taking responsibility for the biological elements within them.
You would be leading a huge project on corona nanoparticles with a major role in the formation of a new type of nanoparticles.
You are expected to lead a team of 4-5 postdoctoral researchers and 4- 5 PhD students.
The role will commence 1 November 2021 or as soon as possible hereafter.
It will involve providing expert input into the group and conducted research that utilises your background in cell. culture or bacteriology and Compositional analysis of proteins, lipids and/or polysaccharide.
The focus will be on understanding the compositional aspects of particles. in physiological fluids and the implications for interaction with biological surfaces especially the gastrointestinal tract.
The job will require a high level of leadership and communication skills with an English spoken and written English background.
It is expected that the position will be completed by the end of the third year of the contract.
The salary will be based on an annual salary of £30,000.
