Clinical Assistant - Molecular Skeletal Biology

Lund University was founded in 1666 and is consistently ranked among the world's leading academic institutions. With approximately 46,000 students and 8,500 employees across Lund, Helsingborg, and Malmö, we are united in our mission to understand, explain, and improve our world and people's living conditions. About the Position We are seeking a person to work on a project in tissue engineering involving human bone and bone marrow. The work will encompass specific cell culture and laboratory tasks as well as bioinformatic analysis (scRNA and ATACseq). The goal is to understand bone and bone marrow formation processes in the laboratory at the cellular and molecular level. The project will be conducted within the Cell, Tissue and Organ Engineering group, led by Doctor Paul Bourgine. Bone is a complex organ that provides structural and mechanical support to our body while also serving as our primary hematopoietic center. Bone formation involves various stages, including cartilage, vascular system, bone, and bone marrow formation. The Bourgine laboratory aims to compile human-specific knowledge about these processes to develop innovative therapies. Within the research group, we value a good work environment based on respect and consideration in our relationships with one another. We continuously work to create conditions for job satisfaction, development, and participation for all employees. We are now seeking a clinical assistant for a limited-term full-time position with a start date of 2026-10-01 or by agreement.
