Senior Researcher in Antimicrobial Resistance Genomics and Bioinformatics at DTU National Food Institute leads applied research in bioinformatic analysis, machine learning, and computational genomics of microbial pathogens with a primary focus on bacterial AMR and One Health surveillance. Responsibilities include developing reproducible bioinformatic pipelines and ML approaches for genotype-based AMR detection and genomic epidemiology, leading and coordinating teaching at BSc/MSc/PhD levels, supervising students, and organizing national/international training courses in WGS-based microbial genomics and surveillance workflows. The role involves scientific advisory and reference-laboratory activities linked to EURL-AMR, WHO Collaborating Centre and FAO Reference Laboratory, and requires a PhD with dual qualifications (bi microbiology depth and computational expertise), substantial postdoctoral research, and an established teaching record; fluency in English (and possibly other languages like Portuguese/Spanish/French) and didactic education if not already completed.
