JUNIOR RESEARCHER ON MITOCHONDRIA TARGETING APPROACHES FOR PARKINSON’S DISEASE
Descrizione dell'offerta di lavoro
This interdisciplinary effort seeks to predict, slow or preempt illness progression by understanding genetic, biological, environmental, and lifestyle factors.
Utilizing a decade-long population study in collaboration with the South Tyrolean Healthcare Service, the institute offers access to extensive data and biological materials suitable for such research.
With a focus on neurological, cardiovascular, and metabolic health, the team employs state-of-the-art labs and innovative management to span the full translational research cycle, from data generation to potential clinical application.
In its focus area "Mitochondrial function and neuronal disease modelling" the Translational Genomics group is looking for a junior researcher to work on the available portfolio of mitochondrial targets for Parkinson's disease.
Specifically, the team is focused on genes and pathways of PD, in which disrupted mitochondrial function contributes to the pathological processes.
Using appropriate neuronal models that include iPSC-derived neurons grown in 2D and 3D culture, we are assessing molecular phenotypes and testing specific targets and pathways for interventional strategies.
We are offering a 1 year position for a scientist who has recently graduated (Master of Science) in Cell Biology, Neuroscience, Biology, Biotechnology or related disciplines.
Researchers with a recently obtained PhD are also invited to participate.
