POSTDOC in FUNCTIONAL BIOINFORMATICS / SYSTEMS BIOLOGY / AI IN MEDICINE

The School of Medical Sciences (MV) at Örebro University is seeking a
postdoctoral researcher in Functional Bioinformatics, for a fixed-term
appointment

(initially 2 years, possibility to extend with 2 years).

This position is part of the research group Functional Bioinformatics and
closely associated with both Nutrition-Gut-Brain Research Centre,

NGBI, and Cardiovascular Research Center, CVRC.
Duties and responsibilities

Research involves implementing and further developing appropriate data
analysis algorithms and workflows, as well as statistical and systems

biological modelling approaches. Different levels of functional molecular
data are available, from experiments with human cell cultures and/or

gastro-intestinal biopsies, as well as from cohorts in clinical trials
regarding cardiovascular disease. Inflammatory processes are at the core

of functional research in all of these cases. Statistical bioinformatics,
network analyses and functional systems biological modelling methods

will be applied and further developed in order to better understand the
ongoing regulatory cross-talk in this kind of systems. Machine learning

as well as more advanced AI approaches are at the core of our
methodological research.
Eligibility

Eligible for the appointment as postdoctoral researcher are applicants
holding a doctoral degree in statistics, computer science, bioinformatics,

systems biology or in related subject areas. The doctoral degree should
have been awarded no more than three years prior to the application
deadline.

Candidates who have obtained their doctoral degree prior to that may
however also be considered if special grounds exist (leave of absence due

to illness, parental leave, clinical duties, an elected position in a trade
union, or other similar circumstances).
Assessment criteria

The successful candidate has a firm background in statistics/mathematics
and in computer science. Important competences include programming in

R/MATLAB/C/Fortran, experience in statistical learning and AI machine
learning/ANN, as well as experiences in systems biological modelling
approaches.

General assessment criteria include good interpersonal skills and an
ability to cooperate as well as the ability and suitability otherwise
required to

perform the duties well.
Equality

Our ambition is to create a place of work that is characterised by gender
equality and diversity.
Information

The position is a full-time (100 %) position for a fixed term of two years.
The salary depends on the successful candidate’s qualifications and
experience.
