About this position
Jette Lengefeld’s lab is advertising a Postdoctoral Researcher opening at Karolinska Institutet for research on healthy aging, stem cell aging, cellular enlargement, and stem cell function and metabolism. The lab’s research focuses on how stem cells age, how cell size affects function, and how these mechanisms may be used to maintain tissue health and prevent disease.
The project is centered on hematopoietic (blood) stem cells and uses approaches such as molecular profiling and mouse models to identify pathways that drive stem cell dysfunction during aging, to explore rejuvenation strategies, and to study whether dysregulation of stem cell size contributes to cancer/leukemia.
The post is based in a collaborative environment spanning Karolinska Institutet and the University of Helsinki. The lab notes support from multiple funders, including the Novo Nordisk Foundation, and indicates that the position is part of an active research program in aging biology and biomedical science.
Deadline: 2026-05-15. Interested candidates should use the lab website to access the open position/application portal and apply directly through the linked recruitment system.
Research keywords: stem cell aging, healthy aging, cellular enlargement, metabolism, hematopoietic stem cells, molecular profiling, mouse models, leukemia, aging biology.
Funding details
Full funding including tuition fees and living expenses is available for this position. The scholarship covers all educational costs and provides a monthly stipend.
