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 in the neuromuscular field for a 100% position as a postdoc at the Neurological Research AUH.

A substantial part of the position will be to perform the clinical duties related to the medical research trials conducted at 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 trial treatment, monitoring of efficacy and safety, and documentation as well as other clinical research tasks. The tasks are performed in close collaboration with project nurses, other researchers and clinical colleagues.

The position also offers the opportunity to develop and carry out 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.

• has Danish authorization as a physician
• has obtained a PhD
• at the time of employment has completed an introductory training in neurology

We would like you to have previously interacted with the Department of Neurological Research AUH, and it is an advantage if you have prior experience with research within the neuromuscular area.
