Functional Multiomic Profiling of Circulating Immune Cells in Multiple Sclerosis (MS)
Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a chronic, neuroinflammatory disease marked by highly individualized disease progressions and responses to therapy. While treatment options have significantly improved in recent years, there is an urgent need to better understand dis-ease heterogeneity at the individual level to personalize treatment and improve outcomes. This PhD project aims to develop and apply a direct functional multiomic platform to characterize individual circulating immune cells, particularly dysregulated and autoreactive populations that could be sparse but mirror certain aspects of inflammatory brain activity. By combining serum lipidomics, single-cell transcriptomics, and functional single-cell pro-filing, we seek to build patient-specific immune signatures to stratify MS patients for targeted therapy, all information that could be gathered through the periphery. You will work at the intersection of immunology, neurobiology, and bioengineering in a cutting-edge interdisciplinary environment, primarily based at the Department of Bio-medicine at Aarhus University. Central to the project is the adaptation of an established single-cell functional assay platform, developed by our group, to assess rare and activated immune cells ex vivo. These assays will be integrated with advanced tran-scriptomic and lipidomic profiling to uncover meaningful cellular dysfunctions and path-ways involved in MS pathology. This will be done together in collaboration with re-searchers from the Amsterdam UMC, experts in inflammation and multiple sclerosis. Please contact Associate Professor Klaus Eyer, eyerk@biomed.au.dk, for more information.

PhD Project: Genetic underpinnings of psychiatric comorbidity
The focus of the PhD project will be on exploring the genetic underpinnings of psychiatric comorbidity in patients with severe mental illness. The research project will involve analysis of secondary data from the Danish National Registers and the iPSYCH sample. iPSYCH is a national project founded in 2012 by six leading researchers in the fields of psychiatry and genetics. The purpose of iPSYCH is to find the causes and create the basis for better treatment and prevention of five of the most serious mental disorders: autism, ADHD, schizophrenia, bipolar disorder and depression. By examining genetic and risk factors in more than 130,000 Danes – both those who suffer from mental disorders and those who do not – we shed light on the interaction between heredity factors and the environment, which for some people result in them developing a mental disorder. Today iPSYCH is one of the world’s largest studies of the genetic and environmental causes of mental disorders and it involves more than 150 researchers within psychiatry, genetics and register-based research. You can read more about iPSYCH at ipsych.dk/en/about-ipsych.

Controlling symmetry breaking in quantum materials with ultrafast correlated disorder
Quantum materials exhibit extraordinary behaviors—such as superconductivity and topological phases—that challenge our understanding of physics and have potential applications in quantum computing, energy transport, and sensing. These properties arise from delicate interactions between electrons, spins, and lattice degrees of freedom, which are poorly understood. Small changes in one parameter can often lead to large changes in the macroscopic material properties. We can exploit this sensitivity to control material properties with light, enabling switching between quantum states on ultrafast, femtosecond, timescales and sometimes achieving states that cannot be accessed by simply changing the material’s temperature. One of the most exciting nonthermal states to emerge is transient superconductivity—though the mechanisms driving this process remain unclear. Our recent work suggests that when light pulses interact with quantum material, they generate non-equilibrium correlated disorder: short-range fluctuations in the material’s structure. We believe that these fluctuations may drive changes in the electronic structure that enable quantum phenomena to emerge. Dr Simon E. Wall simon.wall@phys.au.dk

PhD: Deep-Phenotyping of Anti-Lipid Autoantibodies in Multiple Sclerosis (MS) at the Single-Antibody...
Autoimmune antibodies targeting lipids are emerging as potential key players in the pathology of MS, but their diversity, specificity, and functionality remain poorly understood. This PhD project aims to dissect these antibodies at the single-antibody level, combining single-cell sequencing, DNA-encoded lipid antigens, and high-throughput droplet-based microfluidics with new probes. The student will first develop and adapt droplet microfluidic platforms to study antibody–antigen interactions using DNA-barcoded lipid structures, apply fluorescence-activated droplet sorting to isolate antibody-producing cells, and perform antigen-library and anti-body sequencing to define cross-reactivity and affinity profiles. In this project, you will work at the intersection of immunology, neurobiology, and bioengineering in a cutting-edge interdisciplinary environment, primarily based at the Department of Biomedicine at Aarhus University. Central to the project is the adaptation of an established single-cell functional assay platform, developed by our group, to assess rare and activated immune cells ex vivo. These assays will be also used to study autoreactive T cells, together with a doctor-al student and in collaboration with researchers from the University San Raffaele in Milano, experts in T cell biology.

Postdoc in Functional Single-Cell Analysis in the Cerebrospinal Fluid of patients with Neurological ...
This project focuses on developing a novel, single-cell resolved approach to functionally analyze immune cells in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) for improved understanding, diagnosis, and monitoring of neurological diseases. While current diagnostic methods rely heavily on bulk measurements (e.g., cytokines, cell counts), they fail to capture the dynamic and heterogeneous nature of central immune responses. Leveraging our expertise in droplet-based microfluidics, we aim to quantify functional immune cell activities — such as cytokine secretion and antibody production — directly at the single-cell level, even in low-cell-number CSF samples. Such a method would enable high-resolution immune profiling with potential application to diseases like multiple sclerosis (MS), Parkinson’s disease (PD), and Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS), amongst others. The ultimate goal is to establish a flexible, multidimensional platform that can reveal disease-specific immune signatures, offering new avenues for early diagnosis and therapeutic insight. You will join a small, but highly motivated team already working in this direction. Department of Biomedicine at Faculty of Health at Aarhus University
