Do you want to contribute to top quality medical research? We invite applications for a Research Assistant position in the research group of Professor Magnus Ingelman-Sundberg, within the Section of Pharmacogenetics. This position is housed in the Department of Physiology and Pharmacology, known for its collegial, international, and dynamic research environment. Our current research focuses on the use CYP2C19 is a highly polymorphic enzyme involved in the metabolism of many drugs and endogenous lipids, making it one of the most clinically important pharmacogenes. Beyond drug metabolism, CYP2C19 regulates lipid pathways influencing vascular function, inflammation, cholesterol homeostasis, and broader metabolic processes. We will investigate why fetal CYP2C19 expression induces inflammation in the developing hippocampus, leading to neuronal degeneration in the adult dentate gyrus causing anxiety and depression in adult life identifying molecular pathways relevant for future antidepressant development. Reduced CYP2C19 function has been associated with increased risk of myocardial infarction and ischemic stroke, suggesting broader roles in cardiovascular disease. Using advanced human liver spheroids and brain organoids, we will study CYP2C19 in lipid metabolism ini relation to cardiovascular risk, by identifying CYP2C19-dependent lipid pathways providing new insights into mechanisms underlying neuropsychiatric disorders and arteriosclerosis. Your profile We are seeking a motivated candidate with at least one year of hands-on laboratory experience and practical skills in RT-PCR, Western blotting, and cell culture. Experience in immunohistochemistry, imaging techniques, and molecular biology methods is highly desirable. Previous work with brain tissues is a merit. You will join a dynamic research team of approximately six researchers and contribute to several ongoing projects focused on the biological functions of CYP2C19. Your primary responsibilities will include: · Analysis of lipids regulated by CYP2C19 using advanced 3D human liver spheroids as an experimental model. · Characterization of developmental alterations in the fetal brain caused by CYP2C19 overexpression using approaches such as immunohistochemistry, RNA sequencing, and ELISA. · Development and use of in vitro macrophage activation systems to investigate whether CYP2C19-dependent lipid mediators promote inflammatory pathways relevant to atherosclerosis and cardiovascular disease. While knowledge of the Swedish language is advantageous, fluency in both oral and written English is essential. The successful candidate will be a team player with excellent communication skills, well-organized, and enjoy interacting with researchers and students. What We Offer Karolinska Institutet is one of the world's leading medical universities. Our vision is to advance knowledge about life and promote better health for all.

DDLS INDUSTRIAL PHD POSITION We are announcing a position for a Data-Driven Life Science (DDLS) PhD student in data-driven precision medicine and diagnostics. To be a doctoral student means to devote oneself to a research project under supervision of experienced researchers and following an individual study plan. A doctoral degree corresponds to four years of full-time study. This is an industry PhD project which is a collaboration between the Karolinska Institute, SciLifeLab and Ribocure Pharmaceuticals AB. The PhD student will be employed by Ribocure Pharmaceuticals AB but admitted to PhD studies at the Karolinska Institute. The studies will primarily take place at the Karolinska Institute and SciLifeLab in Stockholm, with frequent research internships at Ribocure Pharmaceuticals AB in Gothenburg. We offer a creative and inspiring environment full of expertise and curiosity. The Karolinska Institute is one of the world's leading medical universities. Our vision is to pursue the development of knowledge about life and to promote a better health for all. At the Karolinska Institute, we conduct successful medical research and hold the largest range of medical education in Sweden. As a doctoral student you are offered an individual research project, a well-educated supervisor, a vast range of elective courses and the opportunity to work in a leading research group. Tbe Karolinska Institute collaborates with prominent universities from all around the world, which ensures opportunities for international exchanges. Ribocure Pharmaceuticals AB, based in Gothenburg, is a clinical‑stage biotech company developing innovative siRNA‑based therapies. Our research focuses on areas with high unmet medical need, including cardiovascular, metabolic, liver, and kidney diseases. We have access to a strong and vertically integrated platform in oligonucleotide research, spanning from early discovery to clinical development. Our goal is to turn cutting‑edge science into new medicines for patients. The PhD project will be embedded in a close collaboration with Ribocure, providing the candidate with valuable exposure to industrial drug development, insight into how academic discoveries are translated into medicines, and experience of working at the interface between fundamental research and therapeutic innovation. PROJECT DESCRIPTION Project title: "RIBO-LINC: Linking data-driven solutions and RNA innovation for liver and cardiometabolic health". An exciting opportunity is available to join a cutting-edge project at the interface of AI, multi-omics, and RNA therapeutics, aiming to transform precision medicine for cardiometabolic and liver diseases. Current therapeutic strategies largely operate at the gene level, overlooking the functional diversity generated by alternative splicing. This project addresses this critical gap by developing data-driven approaches to identify and prioritize isoform-specific therapeutic targets, enabling a new level of precision in RNA-based treatments. The project will combine large-scale multi-omics integration with advanced machine learning, including artificial neural networks, to predict disease-relevant splice variants across cardiometabolic diseases. By leveraging extensive meta-cohort and perturbation datasets, the work aims to uncover isoform-level regulatory mechanisms and guide the development of next-generation RNA therapeutics with improved specificity and reduced off-target effects. Importantly, computational predictions will be directly linked to experimental evaluation of GalNAc-conjugated RNA therapeutics. This position offers a unique opportunity to work in a highly interdisciplinary environment, contributing to the development of transformative therapies at the forefront of AI-driven biomedical research.
