丹麦哥本哈根大学2020年博士后职位招聘（营养学）

Job Description

Novo Nordisk Foundation Center for Basic Metabolic Research Faculty of Health and Medical Sciences University of Copenhagen

We are looking for a highly motivated and dynamic postdoc with interest in food preference research to start 15 November 2020 or after agreement.

Background CBMR is a vibrant international research environment with a focus on interdisciplinary collaboration. Our researchers share a common purpose as they seek to transform the basic understanding of the mechanisms involved in metabolic health and disease, and to accelerate this knowledge toward new prevention and treatment strategies. The Center’s research has resulted in seminal discoveries as to how genes, hormones, and environmental factors influence metabolic health and disease throughout life. You can read more about us here: www. cbmr.ku.dk.

Our group and research The candidate will be part of the Gillum Group focusing on Regulation of Metabolism and Nutrient-specific Appetite. The Gillum Group characterizes hormones and metabolites generated via the gut, gut microbiota, and liver that govern host metabolism and appetite. We identify the receptors and cellular targets through which they exert their beneficial or detrimental effects with the goal of identifying novel therapeutic possibilities.

Project Description The ancient Greeks believed that the liver was intimately connected with both pleasure and the soul. Consistent with this old idea, we recently identified the liver as a hormonal inhibitor of sugar appetite using a combination of mouse and human genetics. Here, we seek to delineate how this anti-sugar hormone, FGF21, acts on appetitive and consummatory drives to suppress sucrose and alcohol cravings, which may lead to new cellular and molecular targets for obesity, steatohepatitis, and alcohol use disorder.

Profile We are looking for a highly motivated and enthusiastic scientist with the following competencies and qualifications:

Essential criteria

PhD in nutrition or molecular nutrition

Experience in designing and executing food preference experiments

Proven track record showing continuous scientific productivity in peer reviewed journals

Excellent written and oral communication skills in English

Independent thinking, and analytical aptitude for devising innovative scientific or technical solutions

Demonstrate capacity for effective independent work and as part of a team

Demonstrate enthusiasm, motivation, flexibility and confidence

Desirable criteria:

Experience with sensory and hedonic evaluation of taste sensitivity

Experience with techniques to evaluate nutrient-specific motivation

Previous experience in endocrine signaling pathways/network analysis

Experience in experimental design, and planning of experiments

Familiar with human enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays

Candidates with additional background in metabolism, food science, obesity surgery, or liver physiology are desirable

Terms of employment The postdoc position is a full-time position for 3 years. Starting date is 15 November 2020 or after agreement.

Salary, pension and terms of employment will be in accordance with the agreement between the Danish Ministry of Finance and AC (Danish Confederation of Professional Associations). Currently, the monthly salary starts at 34,650 DKK/ approx. 4,650 Euro (April 2020-level). Depending on qualifications, a supplement may be negotiated. The employer will pay an additional 17.1 % to your pension fund.

Non-Danish and Danish applicants may be eligible for tax reductions, if they hold a PhD degree and have not lived in Denmark the last 10 years.

The positions are covered by the “Memorandum on Job Structure for Academic Staff at the Universities” of December 11, 2019.
