The DNRF Centre of Excellence, Center for Functional Genomics and Tissue Plasticity (ATLAS) at the University of Southern Denmark invites applications for a PhD scholarship from outstanding candidates with a keen interest in applying mass spectrometry-based functional proteomics to understand the molecular and cellular basis underlying tissue plasticity. The position is available from 1 February 2019, or as soon as possible thereafter.
The DNRF Centre ATLAS, headed by Professor Susanne Mandrup, aims to obtain system-level, mechanistic and cell type-resolved understanding of adipose and hepatic tissue plasticity in response to diet induced obesity and regression in mouse models; and to translate this for in-depth understanding of the functional changes in these human tissues in response to severe obesity and reversal. The centre applies a combination of next generation sequencing-based approaches, mouse models, proteomics, in vivo targeting, computational biology and clinical studies.
Deadline: 9 December 2019.
