Postdoctoral fellowships for BRIDGE - TRANSLATIONAL EXCELLENCE PROGRAMME
Background
The Faculty of Health and Medical Sciences is now launching a novel postdoctoral programme – BRIDGE Translational Excellence Programme aiming to train postdoctoral fellows mentored by top level professionals in research, medicine and life science industry.
The programme will provide the fellows with the ability to translate insights from the basic into the clinical sciences and vice versa and the training to manage the essential collaboration between disciplines.
The programme will cover the translational stages T0 (Population/clinic to lab feedback, Disease modelling –omic studies, Basic research), T1 (Biomarker discovery, Target development, Pre-clinical development) and border to early T2 (First in human, Phase 1 clinical trials, Phase 2 clinical trials, Phase 2b clinical trials).
Now the first 11 positions in the form of 2–years salaried postdoctoral fellowships in translational medicine are available. The fellows will spend 80 % of their time on individual translational research projects mentored by a mentor team consisting of a basic biomedical scientist and a clinical scientist from a hospital or life science industry. And the fellows will spend 20 % of their time on a mandatory academic curriculum, that will cover the translational process, and also teach generic skills such as research management and leadership, ethics, communication and grant writing.
Please visit the BRIDGE website for more information.
The fellowships must commence April 1st, 2019.
Application deadline: December 15th, 2018
Requirements for applicants
Applicants must have an MD and a PhD or equivalent (proof of an appointment that requires doctoral equivalency) or have an MSc and a PhD within a relevant discipline such as veterinary science, biology, biochemistry, molecular biology, bioinformatics, pharmacy, dentistry or medical engineering.
MSc-PhD applicants must have a max. PhD-age of approximately 4 years at the time of fellowship commencement. Documented periods of leave (parental leave, leave due to sickness and military service) can be deducted from the PhD-age.

First step in the application process is to find a mentor team. You may already be in contact with appropriate mentors, and if not please browse through the list of mentor teams and project synopses. Potential fellows should contact a mentor team, and if the match is successful together develop a joint application for the program.
If you are already in contact with an appropriate mentor team, please note that it is an eligibility criterion that the mentor team is listed on the programme website and approved by the University of Copenhagen prior to call closure.
