Postdoc position in skin mechanobiology at reNEW, Faculty of Health and Medical Sciences, University of Copenhagen

This postdoctoral position in skin mechanobiology at the Faculty of Health and Medical Sciences, University of Copenhagen, requires advanced expertise in the interdisciplinary field combining biology, mechanics, and skin research. The ideal candidate will possess a strong background in mechanobiology, with practical experience in experimental techniques related to skin tissue analysis, cellular biomechanics, and mechanotransduction pathways. Proficiency in relevant laboratory methods such as microscopy, biomechanical testing, cell culture, and molecular biology techniques is expected. Familiarity with data analysis tools and software for quantitative assessment of mechanical properties and biological responses is advantageous. The role demands the ability to design and conduct independent research projects, interpret complex biological data, and contribute to collaborative scientific efforts within the reNEW research environment. A doctoral degree in a related discipline such as biomedical engineering, biophysics, physiology, or molecular biology is implied. Strong communication skills for publishing research findings and presenting at scientific forums are essential. Overall, this position suits candidates with a rigorous academic background and practical experience in skin mechanobiology or closely related fields, capable of advancing knowledge on how mechanical forces influence skin health and disease.
