This is to promote clinical and experimental translational research, development and education.
The research group
This postdoc project will be conducted in the research group of Associate professor Pontus Nordenfelt (nordlab.med.lu.se). Our group is interested in cell biology, microbiology and immunology, with emphasis on quantifying molecular mechanisms of host-pathogen interactions, as well as studying the cell biology of cell migration, cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions and signaling. Much of the research is centred around integrin biology and antibody function.
Within the research group, we ensure a good working environment with respect and consideration in our relationships with each other. We are constantly working to create the conditions for job satisfaction, development and participation for all employees.
We are hereby looking for an assistant researcher of 100% with a starting date of 2020-07-01 (or by appointment) and end date 2021-01-31.
Work tasks
The project will focus on development of integrin-based molecular FRET sensors for use with cell migration studies. Since integrins are involved in so many different types of surface interactions, these sensors can also be applied to other research areas, such as bacterial invasion of human cells.
