The Center has been established at the Faculty of Health and Medical Sciences, University of Copenhagen, to promote basic and applied discovery research on human proteins of medical relevance. The Center comprises a wide range of expertise and resources including proteomics, protein production, bioinformatics and general characterization of disease mechanisms. The Programme for Disease Systems Biology consists of two research groups covering many systems level aspects of biology and medicine, including the integration of molecular-level data and healthcare data, for example laboratory test data and biomedical texts. </div><div> </div><div>If you have any questions about the positions, please contact:<span> </span><a href="mailto:nanna.birch@cpr.ku.dk" target="_blank" style="color:rgb(17,85,204)">nanna.birch@cpr.ku.dk</a></div><div> </div><div><strong>Responsibilities and tasks</strong><span> </span> </div><div>The Translational Disease Systems Biology group (<a href="http://www.cpr.ku.dk/research/disease-systems-biology/brunak/" target="_blank" style="color:rgb(17,85,204)">www.cpr.ku.dk/research/<wbr>disease-systems-biology/<wbr>brunak/</a>) led by Søren Brunak focuses on establishing early competitive advantage in disease-relevant computational analysis across the general areas of bioinformatics, chemoinformatics, systems biology and medical informatics. The postdoc(s) will work on data-driven models of temporal disease development using a combination of molecular data and data from the healthcare sector, where the latter has the form of clinical, registry data or complete electronic patient records. These models will in part be descriptive and show how different diseases and diagnosis follow each other over long periods of time and in part predictive in the sense that longitudinal patterns of illnesses, medication and procedures will indicate future events. The models may be augmented by molecular level biomarker data from genomics or proteomics further increasing the predictive power. Prior knowledge of disease classification schemes and standard vocabularies will be an advantage. </div><div> </div><div>Projected start date: Winter 2017. </div><div> </div><div><strong>Qualifications</strong><span> </span> </div><div>Candidates for the postdoctoral positions must hold a PhD degree (or equivalent). The successful candidates will have strong qualifications or experience within several of the following areas: </div><div> </div><div>• Bioinformatics and systems biology at the molecular level </div><div>• Competences within statistics and/or machine learning techniques </div><div>• Medicine, pharmacology or genomics </div><div>• Project management of interdisciplinary research projects within translational bioinformatics </div><div>• Experience with data structures, databases, and data architectures </div><div>• Knowledge of biomedical resources and infrastructures </div><div>• Broad understanding of healthcare data from national registries and electronic patient records from hospitals </div><div>• Prior research experience with healthcare terminologies and ontologies </div><div>• Experience with CDISC </div><div> </div><div>The translational disease systems biology group is highly multidisciplinary and collaborates with many other research groups nationally and internationally. Strong networking and team player skills are therefore preferred. </div><div> </div><div><strong>Place of employment and work</strong><span> </span> </div><div>The employment is at CPR (<a href="http://www.cpr.ku.dk/" target="_blank" style="color:rgb(17,85,204)">www.cpr.ku.dk</a>), University of Copenhagen, located in central Copenhagen. The research environment at CPR is ambitious and international, with approx. 30 different nationalities currently represented. The Center comprises modern laboratories, supercomputer resources and state-of-the-art facilities within protein science. Seminars with high-profile international speakers and regular internal research seminars are organized at the Center. The selected candidate should expect some travel activity. </div><div> </div><div>For more information on working and living in Denmark, visit<span> </span><a href="http://www.ism.ku.dk/" target="_blank" style="color:rgb(17,85,204)">www.ism.ku.dk</a><span> </span>(International staff mobility) and<span> </span><a href="http://www.workingconditions.ku.dk/" target="_blank" style="color:rgb(17,85,204)">www.workingconditions.ku.dk</a><span> </span> </div><div> </div><div><strong>Terms of salary and employment</strong><span> </span> </div><div>Salary, pension and terms of employment will be in accordance with the agreement between the Ministry of Finance and The Academics Central organization.
