Part-time A-TAP position in the Cancer Unit at the Institute of Molecular Medicine, University of Southern Denmark, Odense
At the Cancer Unit, Institute of Molecular Medicine at the University of Southern Denmark, a 5-year position as part-time (22,5 hours/week) A-TAP is available from August 1st, 2026, or as soon as possible thereafter.
The position is affiliated with Associate Professor Tiago Medina in a recently established research group focused on cancer immunology. His group applies a range of multidisciplinary approaches with the aim at investigating the biological and clinical relevance of tertiary lymphoid structures (TLS) across solid tumors. The position involves the establishment of state-of-the-art methods, including single cell RNA/TCR/BCR-Seq and spatial transcriptomics, as well as methods that are routinelly applied in cancer immunology, such as multiparametric/spectral flow cytometry and imaging.
About you
We are looking for a candidate with extensive experience in the analyses of multiomics approaches, including single cell RNA/TCR/BCR-Seq, spatial transcriptomics and proteomics. The ideal candidate must have a strong background in computational biology and immunology, with proven experience in the field of TLS. This position can be performed remotely if needed.
We expect that the selected candidate has strong collaboration skills, is independent and responsible, and has a professional interest in the field. We thrive in a dynamic research environment where quality, teamwork, and a good working atmosphere are key priorities.
Key responsibilities
Perform and support computational analyses (scRNA-seq, scTCR/BCR-seq, spatial transcriptomics, bulk RNA-seq).
Contribute to the development, operation, and quality assurance of analysis pipelines.
Provide technical and scientific support to users of the research infrastructure.
Coordinate and support collaborative research projects within tumor immunology and CAR-T cell research.
Contribute to data management, documentation, and reproducibility.
What we offer
We offer an exciting workplace with significant influence over the planning and execution of your own tasks.
For further information about the position, please contact Associate Professor Tiago Medina at [email protected].
Possibility for remote work.

About SDU
The University of Southern Denmark was established to create value for and with society. Whether our contributions come in the form of excellent research, innovative solutions, education or learning, we must make a positive difference to society and contribute to a sustainable future. We do this by cultivating talents and creating the best environments for research and learning. It is therefore crucial that SDU retains, develops and recruits talent. At the same time, we need to ensure consistently high quality in all our activities – and we can only do that with the right people. The University’s researchers, lecturers, students, managers and technical/administrative staff are the foundation of our success.
