Facility Responsible/Associate Professor in Advanced Light Microscopy

The subject covers the development and application of innovative methods that use light to explore biological systems and processes at the molecular, cellular, and tissue levels. It includes experimental light microscopy and image analysis, such as super-resolution and light-sheet microscopy, within various disciplines like biology and medicine.

Duties

The duties include responsibility for the national research infrastructure NMI (National Microscopy Infrastructure) and the research infrastructure ALM (Advanced Light Microscopy) at SciLifeLab, at 50%. The senior lecturer is expected to participate in the development of existing courses at the undergraduate, advanced, and doctoral levels within the unit for biophysics. Supervision of bachelor’s and master’s theses, as well as doctoral supervision, is included. The research should focus on method development within the field. The research must ensure that the research infrastructure, the national infrastructure, and teaching stay aligned with the development within the field. The senior lecturer is expected to be able to teach in Swedish within three years, and if necessary, a language plan will be created in connection with the appointment as support.
