job description

The Ludwig Institute for Cancer Research Ltd (LICR) is a global non-profit research organization comprised of branches located at academic centers in several countries. The LICR Stockholm Branch (http://www.licr.ki.se), situated at the campus of the Karolinska Institutet, was founded in 1986. The research is focused on signaling by growth factors, stem cell biology, and cellular differentiation.

The LICR invites applications for a postdoctoral position with Dr. Jan Stenman to study the mechanisms and function of Wnt signaling during embryonic development. We have recently shown that Wnt signaling is critical for the vascularization and differentiation of the central nervous system vasculature (Science 2008, 322, 1247-1250).

Qualifications

Candidates should have a Ph.D. in a relevant field. Profound knowledge in at least one of the following fields: cell or developmental biology is required. Experience with mouse models, Wnt signaling and/or bioinformatics is a plus.

Application Procedure

For further information, please, contact Dr. Jan Stenman, +46-8-524 87 160, email:stenmanlab@licr.ki.se

Deadline for application: Position open until filled

Please, email a cover letter, CV, and the names of three references as one pdf-file to:stenmanlab@licr.ki.se
