Applications are invited for a combined full-time position as Staff Scientist (AC-TAP) (80% time) and Assistant Professor (20% time) in the laboratory of DNRF Chair and Novo Nordisk Faculty Professor Vijay Tiwari (https://www.tiwarilab.com/) at the Department of Molecular Medicine (IMM), University of Southern Denmark (SDU).
The position is available from May 1, 2023 (or as soon as possible thereafter) – April 30, 2025 with a possibility for prolongation.
The staff scientist/assistant professor will lead research on gene regulatory mechanisms underlying brain development and its disruption in various neurological disorders and support Professor Tiwari in the smooth running of the laboratory at various levels.
IMM aims to generate new knowledge on the function of the human body and disease mechanisms, thereby contributing to improved human health. IMM hosts an interdisciplinary group of experts in neurobiology and cancer biology and is in close proximity to the experts in genomics, proteomics and chromatin biology. Such a promising environment elicits translational collaborations with clinical practice and research toward understanding mechanisms underlying the pathophysiology of various human diseases.
The Tiwari lab employs cutting-edge epigenetics and molecular biology tools in combination with genomics and computational biology approaches to generate comprehensive models of gene regulation during brain development and its misregulation in diseases including neurodevelopmental disorders and cancer.
