Position as postdoctoral researcher at the Department of Clinical Immunology, Zealand University Hospital, Zealand Region
We have a vacant position as postdoctoral researcher from 2024-08-01 to conduct an 12 months study on mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) immunology, MSC product development, and early biomarkers in pancreatic cancer.
The position is temporary and runs for 11 months. The position is 37 hours per week, with work hours between 08:00 – 15:24 on weekdays. However, the research project can also require that you work on evenings/weekends.
The position is at the Department of Clinical Immunology in Næstved. However, in 2025 we will move the department to Køge. The research will aim at determining the importance of HLA-F in MSC immunology and establishing MSC products for patient treatment. We have already developed and designed most of the work flow and projects for this treatment but still need some quality control in place. The study is conducted in close collaboration with Department of Science and Environment, Roskilde University and Department of Orthopedic Surgery, Odense University Hospital.
The postdoctoral researcher shall run the project, perform quality control, prepare the MSC production for approval. In addition the postdoctoral researcher shall conduct molecular biology analyses on MSC cellular and immunological functions, miRNA analyses in pancreatic cancer as well as publishing the results. The postdoctoral researcher is free to decide on and pursue specific research angles within the scope of this work. The postdoctoral researcher will collaborate with other researchers within the research group at the Department of Clinical Immunology, Zealand University Hospital.
The specific deliverables within MSC production are:
- Updating all data and documentation in the quality control system (D4) incl. the MSC expansion protocols
- Defining the QP for the GMP production
- Validation of BactAlert according to EU regulation

Om os
Den 1. januar 2024 fusionerede Sjællands Universitetshospital (SUH) med Nykøbing F. Sygehus (NFS). Som et af Danmarks største akutsygehuse driver og udvikler vi sygehusene i Køge, Roskilde og Nykøbing F. Vi har aktivitet på alle regionens sygehuse, og vi betjener alle regionens patienter med specialiserede sundhedsydelser samt tilbyder sundhedsydelser inden for 32 forskellige lægelige specialer.
Som Danmarks seneste universitetshospital søger vi at omdefinere tilgangen til, hvordan sundhedsfaglige ydelser leveres i regionen. Vi stræber efter at sikre lige sundhedstilbud for alle. Med øget fokus på uddannelse, forskning og innovation arbejder vi ud fra tankesættet om at bygge bro over afstande, etablere tværfaglige fællesskaber og bringe specialiseret behandling tættere på borgerne.
