The Netherlands Metabolomics Centre is a unique, multidisciplinary combination of pioneering experts dedicated to develop metabolomics technologies and to incorporate the emerging tools into biological/biomedical research through collaborations with academic groups, clinical centres and industry.

The mission of NMC is to take the lead in the creation of a world-class metabolomics knowledge infrastructure to improve personal health. The NMC has recently been founded by a subsidy from the Netherlands Genomics Initiative, and will have a budget of 50 M€ for the period from 2008-2012. The researchers will have a high degree of collaboration with each other, and will conduct their research at different places.

The NMC invites applications for the following positions:

Post-doctoral and PhD student positions in the following research areas:

  • Biostatistics
