We are looking for a highly motivated and dynamic postdoc for a 2-year position (with possible extension) in family and sexual health. The start date is negotiable, but we anticipate Fall 2023. Information on the department can be found at:  https://ifsv.ku.dk/ Our research The Family and Sexual Health group is housed within the Section of Environmental Health, in the Department of Public Health (see specifically  https://publichealth.ku.dk/about-the-department/environment/psychology/ ). The group seeks to put an empirical focus on what contributes to a positive family and sexual life. Dissatisfaction, problems, and discord related to family and relationship life is normal. But if these become too intense, disruptive, or extends over longer periods of time, research consistently finds them closely tied with reduced mental and physical health, lower quality of life, lower productivity, feelings of insecurity, and increases in sick days and hospitalization. Within...

We are offering a PhD fellowship in Functional Genetics commencing 1 July 2023. Our group and research The overarching goal of my research is to understand mechanisms underlying maintenance of genome stability in mammalian cells, and how impairments of these mechanisms cause diseases such as familial breast cancer. Based on this foundational understanding, we aim to find new targets for cancer therapy as well as improve current therapies. We are a group of approx. 12 researchers that work in close contact with clinical collaborators. Project description The PhD student will unravel new functions of the major tumor suppressor BRCA2.  The first aim of this project is to decode the role of BRCA2 cancer-associated variants with focus on the C-terminus using our newly developed CRISPR-Select variant functional assay. This assay is unique as it allows quantitative estimate of variant impact on protein function. Additionally, we have uncovered a new C-terminal...
