FW: Open position for an Early Stage Researcher (PhD student) (evolutionary biology/biomedicine) position, Department of Environmental and Biological Sciences, Joensuu and Kuopio Campus
by Tuomo Glumoff 01 Sep '17

01 Sep '17

The University of Eastern Finland, UEF, is one of the largest multidisciplinary universities in Finland. We offer education in nearly one hundred major subjects, and are home to approximately 15,000 students and 2,500 members of staff. We operate on three campuses in Joensuu, Kuopio and Savonlinna. In international rankings, we are ranked among the leading universities in the world. The Faculty of Science and Forestry operates on the Kuopio and Joensuu campuses of the University of Eastern Finland. The mission of the faculty is to carry out internationally recognised scientific research and to offer research-education in the fields of natural sciences and forest sciences. The faculty invests in all of the strategic research areas of the university. The faculty's environments for research and learning are international, modern and multidisciplinary. The faculty has approximately 3,800 Bachelor's and Master's degree students and some 490 postgraduate students. The number of staff amounts to 560. http://www.uef.fi/en/lumet/etusivu. We are now inviting applications for an Early Stage Researcher (PhD student) (evolutionary biology/biomedicine) position, Department of Environmental and Biological Sciences, Joensuu and Kuopio Campus We are seeking motivated Early Stage Researcher (PhD student) for our project "Molecular and immunological basis of gamete compatibility in humans" (funded by Academy of Finland). The primary aim of the project is to clarify molecular and immunological mechanisms of female-induced sperm selection ('cryptic female choice') in humans and find new tools for the development of next generation fertility treatments, which are better tailored to individual couples. See short description of the project: http://webfocus.aka.fi/ibi_apps/WFServlet?IBIF_ex=x_HakKuvaus2&CLICKED_ON=&… The primary duty of hired Early Stage Researcher is to write and defend a PhD thesis according to the formulated research plan. Main tasks include (but are not limited to) sperm motility and chemotaxis measurements and determination of female-induced physiological changes in sperm. The Early Stage Researcher also has a possibility to participate in molecular and immunological analyses of sperm selection mechanisms. His/her tasks also include data analysis and reporting of the results in scientific journals. A person to be appointed as an Early Stage Researcher shall be qualified to pursue postgraduate studies, i.e. he/she is required to have completed a suitable higher university degree or an equivalent education, which in the country in question would qualify the person for similar academic studies (UEF University Regulations, Section 31). Suitable degrees for the filled position include e.g. various biological, biomedical and medical degrees. The applicant is expected to have good written and spoken English. Earlier experience in laboratory work, flow cytometry, other relevant methods in cell biology (e.g. sperm motility or viability analyses, ELISA assays), immunology or molecular biology (e.g. RNA seq and bioinformatics) are viewed as a benefit for the applicant. If you have any of these skills, please indicate it in attached CV and/or motivation letter (see below). English may be used as the language of instruction and supervision in this position. The position is filled initially for a fixed term from 1 January 2018 to 31 August 2020. Potential continuation of the position (up to 31 December 2021) will be agreed later.

Pro Gradu position at the Faculty of Biochemistry and Molecular Medicine
by Anna Laitakari 01 Sep '17

01 Sep '17

Dear all, We are looking for a highly motivated biochemistry or biology master's degree student to study the long term effects of activated hypoxia response in mice in Prof. Peppi Karppinen's group. The Pro Gradu project involves screening through the histology of several organs in order to compare aging-related changes in the tissues between genetically modified mice and wild-type mice. The goal of the project is to show that hypoxia-response is not harmful but rather beneficial for the aging process. We have aged mice which have an activated hypoxia response (via genetic modification) and collected their tissues for analysis. During the project you will learn methods, such as in vivo mouse handling, necropsy, histological methods such as immunofluorescence staining and microscopy, qPCR and Western blotting. If you are interested please contact us for further details about the project. The project can start as soon as a suitable candidate has been found. Best wishes, Anna Laitakari, M.Sc, PhD Student Biocenter Oulu Faculty of Biochemistry and Molecular Medicine University of Oulu, Finland
