Postdoc of Bioinformatics and Computational Proteomics

Opportunity summary

Employment type: FULLTIME. The GLOBE Institute at the University of Copenhagen invites applications for a postdoctoral position in bioinformatics and computational proteomics, based in the Institute's palaeoproteomics and biomolecular archaeology group. The position serves as the computational core of StructProt, a cross-faculty UCPH Convergence project that combines protein biophysics, evolutionary genomics, biomolecular archaeology, and textile research to resolve species identity and post-translational modifications in the structural proteins collagen and keratin. The successful candidate will characterise collagen and keratin sequence diversity across thousands of published vertebrate genome assemblies, translate this into a structured reference resource for mass spectrometry species identification, and develop pipelines for the analysis of ZooMS (MALDI-TOF MS) and LC-MS/MS data. The work is led at GLOBE by Professor Matthew Collins in close collaboration with Assistant Professor Josefin Stiller (evolutionary genomics) and connects directly to the biophysical modelling of Professor Kresten Lindorff-Larsen. The position is for 21 months. The postdoc's duties will include research within bioinformatics and computational proteomics as well as teaching. The post may also include the performance of other duties1 …
