PhD Student in Medical Science - Oral Microbiome and Microbial Ecology
You who are admitted to doctoral education at the Faculty of Medicine will be part of the faculty-wide doctoral education program. The program comprises 25 credits and is offered at two study rates: 25 credits over 8 terms (total 4 years) or over 12 terms (total 6 years), with program start each autumn and spring term. More information about the program can be found on the faculty's website for doctoral education (Doctoral Education) National Research School for Biomedical Analysts Umeå University participates in the research school Biomedical Analyst for eXcellence (BioLabX), a national research school that is a collaboration between seven Swedish universities with Uppsala University as the main responsible institution. You can read more about the research school in the announcement on our website Vacancies at Umeå University https://www.umu.se/jobba-hos-oss/lediga-jobb/ Project Description The oral microbiome constitutes a complex and dynamic microbial ecosystem that plays a central role in oral and systemic health. The composition and function of microorganisms are affected by both the surrounding environment and the host's biological conditions. Genetic factors in humans can explain a significant portion of the variation in the presence of certain oral microorganisms. Despite this, the biological mechanisms behind these associations remain largely unknown. New comprehensive genetic association studies have identified specific genetic loci in humans that are linked to variation in the oral microbiome. These findings create new opportunities to move from statistical associations to an understanding of the functional mechanisms that connect host genetics to microbial ecology. The project "Oral microbiome – host genetics and microbial ecology" focuses on how genetically determined variations in, for example, saliva composition, glycan presentation, and host tissues affect microorganisms' adhesion, biofilm formation, and function. The goal is to identify and characterize the mechanisms through which the host shapes the oral microbial ecosystem. The project combines experimental and bioinformatic approaches and the work will include, among other things: genetic and molecular biological analyses, Nanopore-based sequencing, analysis and integration of microbiome data and clinical data, experimental studies of microbial adhesion and biofilm formation, analysis of carbohydrates and proteins relevant to host-microbe interactions, protein profiling of extracellular/outer membrane vesicles.

JOB RESPONSIBILITIES As a nursing assistant with us, you contribute knowledge and commitment that make people feel secure. As a nursing assistant in the operating room, you work in a team with the surgical nurse, anesthesia nurse, anesthesiologist, and surgeon. Through high competence levels among staff—medical, nursing, and technical—we provide the patient with the best possible care. As a nursing assistant, you share significant responsibility with the operating room team and play an important role in ensuring safe patient surgery. The logistics around operations place high demands on staff competence. As a nursing assistant, you are part of the team surrounding the patient's care during surgery and have a meaningful role in collaboration with your colleagues on the operating team. You assist the anesthesia nurse and surgical nurse during the operation. You help prepare and set up the operating room before each surgery, receive patients with the anesthesia nurse, and participate in anesthesia induction and awakening. During the operation, you are the surgical nurse's right hand. Your duties also include handling medical technical equipment. After the operation is completed, you participate in awakening and cleaning/preparing the room. The role also includes student supervision, as Norrland University Hospital is a teaching hospital. Working as a nursing assistant is a varied and educational profession where the work pace can shift from calm situations to more acute ones. You will receive orientation during the initial period until you become independent, which typically takes about one year depending on whether you have experience from the operating room or not. QUALIFICATIONS We are looking for you who are a trained nursing assistant with qualifications in acute care and preferably with a specialist course in surgery, anesthesia, and intensive care. Since nursing assistant has been a protected title as of July 1, 2023, you must provide a certificate from the National Board of Health and Welfare (Socialstyrelsen).

You have good technical foundational understanding and see it as an exciting challenge to make use of our technical equipment. As a person, we believe you have good collaboration skills, are flexible in thinking and action, and have the ability to make quick decisions. You have a drive to contribute to the development of the operation. We also see that you actively contribute to a good work environment and promote safety, learning, respect, and a professional approach. Employment type: Permanent position.
