addition, modern methods such as CRISPR/Cas9 technology, human induced
pluripotent cells (hiPSCs) and organoids give pharmacological research
new possibilities in the discovery of the next generation of drugs by
development of precision disease models, accelerating the identification
and validation of high-value targets, and phenotypic drug screening.
In addition to scientific research, the appointee is responsible for
undergraduate (bachelor and master in pharmacy) and postgraduate level
education. The teaching has its main focus on pharmacology including
those underlying therapeutic drug actions and adverse drug reactions.
The position will be based at the Division of Pharmacology and
Pharmacotherapy.
