About this position
Postdoctoral position at Karolinska Institutet in Stockholm, Sweden, in the Zierath Lab within the Department of Molecular Medicine and Surgery.
The project, Molecular drivers of metabolic dysfunction, focuses on identifying and validating key regulatory metabolic pathways involved in the interplay between circadian rhythms and insulin resistance in the context of type 2 diabetes. The work also examines the role of exercise-responsive metabolites in regulating skeletal muscle metabolism.
This is an interdisciplinary postdoc spanning clinical physiology, medicine, cell physiology, exercise physiology, molecular biology, and bioinformatics, with a strong disease-focused translational angle.
Candidate requirements include doctoral training in experimental research, expertise in cellular metabolism in vitro and in vivo, and preferably FELASA certification or similar. Experience with clinical studies and human sample analysis is considered valuable. Prior work in circadian biology, cell signalling, and bioinformatic analysis of large datasets is an additional merit.
The post highlights a collaborative, hardworking team environment. Applications are submitted through the linked application page.
