The two Swedish Centres of Excellence, the Umeå Centre for Microbial Research and the Umeå Plant Science Centre at Umeå University, focus on molecular and translational research.
This post-doctoral program explores phage–bacteria dynamics in the early-life gut microbiome using metagenomic approaches. The project aims to uncover how epigenetic modifications and phage interactions influence microbial colonization, adaptation, and stability during early development.
This interdisciplinary program positions the team to uncover new microbial mechanisms of immune modulation and disease risk in early life. The research will take place in a multidisciplinary setting within the department of Clinical Microbiology at Umeå University, MIMS (Nordic-EMBL partnership node for Molecular Medicine in Sweden), UCMR (Umeå Center for Microbial Research), Northpop birth cohort, and associated research and DDLS (Data-driven Life Sciences through Scilifelab) network.
