DOCTORAL RESEARCHER

The Varjosalo lab has a longstanding interest in the understanding of how key cellular signaling molecules; protein kinases and transcription factors mediate their signaling potential and how the signaling is changed in diseases in the immunology and oncology axis. For this purpose, we have developed experimental and computational methods to identify the protein-interactions formed by these signaling molecules, and established assays to study the activities, substrates and targets for these proteins. Additionally, we employ high-end quantitative mass spectrometry -based proteomics to assess quantitative protein changes, as well as phosphorylation status of the tissues/cells. Furthermore, combining the data from the different sets of ‘omics’ data (proteomics, sequencing, HTS), allows us to generate global and systems level understanding on how disease-causing mutations mediate their effects, also enabling the development of therapeutic or diagnostic approaches.

We are looking for a highly-motivated candidate with a master’s degree in biology, biochemistry, biotechnology, bioinformatics or other relevant fields. We expect the candidate to have practical experience with “wet lab” work and strong interest in the development and application of modern instrumentation.
