Aalborg Universitet
Are you enthusiastic about basic human pain research and do you want to work and set research directions in an excellent global environment within fundamental human pain research? Come join us at the Centre of Excellence, Center for Neuroplasticity and Pain (CNAP), at Aalborg University. One or more positions as Associate Professor are open for appointment from 1st October 2024 or soon hereafter.JobbeskrivelseCNAP is a Centre of Excellence supported by the Danish National Research Foundation at Aalborg University, Denmark. We do frontline fundamental research to identify novel mechanisms involved in the dynamics of pain neuroplasticity and advance the understandings of this topic. The vision of CNAP is to identify and modulate key features of human pain neuroplasticity through a systematic approach, including provoking, probing, and modulating the dynamic neuroplastic properties of the pain system. We believe that this approach over time will facilitate new fundamental discoveries and change the state of the art. CNAP is an international research centre with approximately 60% of our staff from outside of Denmark and gender equality. Our world class lab facilities in brand new buildings, co-located with Aalborg University Hospital, enable advanced quantitative sensory/pain testing, application of advanced neurophysiological techniques(e.g. EEG, TMS, rTMS, HD-tDCS, neuronavigation), bio-medical techniques(e.g. epigenetics, genetics, general biomarkers, and multi-OMICS) in human experimental and clinical pain research settings as well as research based on animal models(e.g. rodents and pigs).CNAP is affiliated to the Department of Health Science and Technology, the Faculty of Medicine, which focuses on multidisciplinary research and teaching in health science and technology(e.g., medicine and biomedical engineering). The strategic focus of the department is to be leading within digital health and being well-known for medical doctors and engineers finding solutions together.
