With eight faculties and several specialized research centers, Lund University is the largest institution of research and higher education in Sweden. The Lund Stem Cell Center is a strong international research center with a focus on stem cell biology and regenerative medicine. The center consists of twenty research groups and offers a collaborative and stimulating research environment with state-of-the-art core facilities and regular seminars in the fields of developmental biology, neurobiology, hematopoiesis and cancer stem cells.

We are recruiting a highly motivated and collaborative postdoctoral fellow to join our new team. Candidates with a strong background in hematopoiesis, immunology, biochemistry, or molecular biology are encouraged to apply. The project will focus on how gene regulation at the post-transcriptional level impacts cell-fate decisions during hematopoiesis, with a focus on fetal and adult lymphopoiesis. Elucidation of key post-transcriptional networks will help fill an apparent void in our understanding of hematopoietic and immune development. Approaches will include generating/characterizing mouse models, flow cytometry, high throughput genetic screens, expression profiling, molecular biology and biochemistry. Priority will be given to candidates with advanced experience in these techniques. A PhD degree and good verbal and written communication skills in English are required for consideration.

If interested, please send a statement of interest, curriculum vitae, along with names and contact information of three references to (joan.yuan@med.lu.se) in an email entitled ‘Postdoc’.
