The Porse group at the Finsen Laboratory/BRIC at University of Copenhagen is seeking a highly motivated postdocs to work on hematopoietic stem cell biology.

Our research/The group

The Porse group (Finsen Laboratory/BRIC) is situated in a diverse and stimulating environment and we focus our research on elucidating mechanisms governing normal and malignant haematopoiesis with special emphasis on the behaviour of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) during adult haematopoiesis and during process of malignant transformation towards hematological malignancies.

To this end, we employ mouse models of human pre-malignant and malignant conditions, mouse knockout lines of putative stem cell regulators, primary patient material and a broad range of genome-wide approaches and single cell analyses incl. cutting edge single cell proteomics.

The Porse group is affiliated with the Finsen Laboratory at Rigshospitalet as well as with BRIC at the University of Copenhagen.

Project/The research project(s)

The successful candidate will join an international and interdisciplinary research group working on various aspects of normal and malignant hematopoietic stem cell biology including associated diseases such as acute myeloid leukemia. The candidate(s) will use advanced CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing technologies in primary human and murine hematopoietic stem cells to functionally assess novel regulators of normal and malignant hematopoietic stem cell biology. There will be a large degree of freedom for the candidate(s) to shape and drive the research projects forward.
