We are looking for two postdocs, two PhD candidates and a lab engineer. The K.G. Jebsen – Thrombosis Research and Expertise Center (TREC) is located in Tromsø, at UiT – The Arctic University of Norway.

Professor John-Bjarne Hansen is the head of K.G. Jebsen TREC. The center has 5.2 permanent scientific positions (professors), three technical positions, and 15-20 temporary scientific positions (PhD-students and postdoctors). In addition, K.G. Jebsen TREC has partners in Tromsø, Bodø, Oslo, Stockholm, Leiden (The Netherlands), and San Diego (USA).

The overall aim of K.G. Jebsen TREC is to identify novel inherited and environmental risk factors and extend the understanding of the pathogenesis in venous thromboembolism (VTE).

Senior lab engineer:
A permanent position as a senior engineer at the university of Tromsø, at TREC. The job includes responsibility of tasks related to establishment, maintenance and operation of an animal lab. Conducting protocols for in vivo-trials, collecting and analyzing data are other responsibilities. Depending on the candidate’s experience, additional training by TRECs partners may be required to achieve the desired skills in order to perform trials in specialized thrombosis models.
