Postdoctoral position summary/title: Postdoc in bioinformatics and biological sequence analysis.
The project is supported by an Emerging Investigator grant by the Novo Nordisk Foundation, which funds groundbreaking research with promising applications in data science and the green transition in Europe. In this project, we will infer the effects of point mutations on plant fitness, based on evolutionary constraint and machine learning models (natural language processing applied to gene and protein sequences). This project will offer a unique opportunity to validate predicted fitness effects in experimental populations to support applications in genomic prediction and new breeding techniques. We are looking for a motivated postdoctoral associate to lead our effort towards the prediction of fitness effects. In this project, the candidate will gain mentoring experience, by collaborating with a PhD student for the validation of predictions in experimental populations

Postdoctoral position summary/title: Postdoc in pharmacogenomics of ADHD
Stimulant medications are first line treatment for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and have proven effective in reducing ADHD core symptoms and risk of several negative outcomes such as injuries, accidents and risk of substance use disorder. Despite this, ~50% of ADHD patients that initiate stimulants discontinue treatment within two years, with poor treatment response and side-effects being the most common reasons. The biological mechanisms underpinning medication discontinuation are not well understood, and the aim of this project is to identify common and rare genetic variants involved in ADHD medication discontinuation and elucidate the shared genetic architecture of medication discontinuation with cardiometabolic diseases. The project entails analyses of comprehensive genome-wide data generated by the iPSYCH consortium including more than 130,000 genotyped individuals (22K ADHD cases), which can be linked to information about ADHD medication use in the National Danish Prescription register.
