Postdoc in Neurological Research, AUH

Are you a physician with clinical experience in neurology, a PhD, and an interest in clinical research? Then we have an exciting opportunity for you.

At the Neurological Research AUH, we are seeking a full-time postdoc for the period from February 1, 2027 to January 31, 2028.

Job Description

We are seeking a physician with interest in and experience within the neuromuscular field for a 100% postdoc position at Neurological Research AUH.

A significant part of the position will be to undertake the clinical duties in connection with the medical research trials conducted in the department, as a subinvestigator in close collaboration with the studies' principal investigators. You will thus have the opportunity to work with a wide range of neuromuscular diseases and gain experience in conducting clinical drug trials.

Your tasks will include, among others: screening and inclusion of patients, clinical examinations of study participants, administration of the investigational treatment, monitoring of efficacy and safety, and documentation as well as other clinical research tasks. The tasks are carried out in close collaboration with project nurses, other researchers, and clinical colleagues.

The position also provides an opportunity to develop and conduct independent research projects in collaboration with the research group. There will thus be good opportunities to combine work on clinical trials with one's own research interests and to continue building an academic career in neurology.

Qualifications

We are seeking a candidate who

• has Danish authorization as a physician
• has obtained a PhD
• at the start of employment has completed an introductory training in neurology
• can speak and write and understands Danish and English

We would like to see that you have previously had contact with the Department of Neurological Research AUH, and it is an advantage if you have prior experience with research in the neuromuscular area.

It is important that you can work independently, but also that you have good collaboration skills and thrive in an interdisciplinary environment.
