Description

The goal of the lab is to understand the molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying tauopathies. To do this, researchers use genetic, molecular, and cellular techniques in traditional cell and mouse models as well as stem cell models of tauopathies. The lab is seeking a postdoctoral fellow for projects related to the functional characterization of genetic risk variants in stem cell models of tauopathies.

Requirements

Candidates should have a strong background in biochemical and molecular techniques and a Ph.D. or M.D. degree with less than five years of postdoctoral experience. Highly motivated individuals with a record of productive research are encouraged to apply.
