Postdoctoral Fellowships

With this postdoctoral programme the Strategic Research Programme in Diabetes (SRP Diabetes) at Karolinska Institutet aims to support the next generation of exceptional young scientists within the diabetes area, including both experimental and clinical research. Supported fellows study different perspectives of diabetes and its comorbidities.

Six postdoc positions in diabetes research open for applications

Based at Karolinska Institutet, fellows will undertake a cutting-edge research project, mentored by leading researchers in the field of diabetes. The fellowships are fully funded, and salary is provided for a 2-year period. It is our intention that the positions will start in the spring of 2025, though some flexibility with the start date might be possible. Read more about the available projects here below.
