PhD fellowship in Bioinformatic analyses of proteins and glycans at the Department of Cellular and Molecular Medicine (ICMM)
KU – SUND – PANUM KBH N
We are offering one PhD fellowship at the Copenhagen Center for Glycomics (CCG) commencing from 15th January 2025 or after agreement.Our research
Copenhagen Center for Glycomics (CCG) is composed of 7 research groups and hosts about 10 post docs and 10 PhD students in addition to Master students and guest researchers. CCG strives be a leader in glycosciences in pioneering transformation of the field towards wider integration into mainstream cell biology by developing experimental strategies, informatics approaches, and sustainable resources amenable not only to experts. We aim to facilitate discovery of diseases caused by altered glycosylation, develop new diagnostic and therapeutic tools, and identify new ways to design and produce improved glycoprotein drugs.CCG is a cutting-edge interdisciplinary research and training Center located on the 10th floor of the new Mærsk Tower science building within the Department of Cellular and Molecular Medicine (ICMM). CCG has state-of-the-art facilities for mass spectrometry, flow cytometry, cell engineering, and glycan arrays, and group leaders hold diverse expertise in all areas of glycosciences. Our core valuables include glycoproteome data and bioinformatics tools, validated gene editing tools, glycoengineered cell libraries, and design matrices for recombinant production of glycotherapeutics.CCG hosts an international seminar series, PhD courses in glycobiology and gene editing, and participates in ICMMs education program. CCG also houses a spin-out (GlycoDisplay ApS) dedicated to developing improved glycoprotein drugs.The PhD position is available within the Joshi group at CCG at the Department of Cellular and Molecular Medicine (ICMM) driving research projects related to discovery and dissection of biological functions of protein glycosylation with focus on developing bioinformatics and deep learning methodologies to perform sequence analysis on proteins.Principal supervisor is Associate professor Hiren Joshi; e-mail: .Read more at .Start: 15th January 2025 (or after agreement)Duration: 3 years as a PhD fellowThe PhD fellow will conduct independent research related to the topics above at the Department of Cellular and Molecular Medicine (ICMM).
