Offer Description

We are now seeking a skilled and ambitious co-worker to take on challenging projects in the context of the European Research Council (ERC) Consolidator Grant "FatVersusBile", which focuses on how the gut drives liver health in humans and mice, particularly in the setting of inflammatory bowel disease. The subprojects in this 3-year postdoctoral position will use exciting in vivo gnotobiotic models as a discovery tool to define the microbial contribution to and interaction between chronic inflammatory and steatotic hepatobiliary diseases. New leads will be pursued using in vivo and in vitro experiments (including the use of organoid systems) as well as validation in human materials, with the aim of identifying potential mechanisms and their clinical relevance.

The research group, led by Prof. Johannes Hov, has over the last decade established a strong clinical and translational microbiome research environment with access to a wide range of tools including metagenomics, mouse models and a germ-free animal facility. The group has recently successfully completed the ERC Starting Grant project "StopAutoimmunity", which has led to several important discoveries. With the new ideas in "FatVersusBile", we aim to move one step further to understand gut factors driving liver health and how they can be manipulated.
