Research Scientist for metabolomics data science, Section for Clinical Mass Spectrometry, Danish Center for Newborn Screening, Statens Serum Institut

The metabolomics research group at the Section for Clinical Mass Spectrometry, Danish Center for Newborn Screening is looking for a dedicated data scientist with a strong background in big omics data analysis.

Our group consists of three academics and one laboratory technician and specializes in research and development of population size mass spectrometry-based metabolomics approaches, for predictive, personalized and preventive diagnostics.

A large majority of our samples are neonatal dried blood spots, which we retrieve from the Danish National Biobank, hosting samples from around half of the population in Denmark. In combination with demographic and health-related data from Danish registries, these samples provide a unique resource for us to study early metabolic predictors of disease.
