The University of Gothenburg is a large and inspiring place to work and study which tackle’s society challenges with diverse knowledge and new perspectives. The University of Gothenburg is also a platform for strong research study programs. The Department of Radiation at University of Gothenburg provides research on various radiology aspects and its uses to gain impact knowledge. The current research group conducts studies in radiation biology with modern genetic and molecular methods. It provides an opportunity mainly to strengthen and develop students scholarly proficiency.

Subject Area of the International Postdoctoral position in Radiation Biology:

The current research in radiobiology in the research group is focused on better understanding of biological mechanisms in vivo after exposure to radionuclides or ionizing radiation externally. The applications studied are low-dose and dose rate exposure on normal tissues and high dose exposure for radionuclide therapy or external radiotherapy of cancer diseases. The work includes optimization of radiotherapy (high effects on tumour and low effects on normal tissues). Biomarkers are suggested and validated.
