PhD Researcher in Neurobiology and Regenerative Medicine
4 weken geleden
Job Description
We are seeking a highly motivated PhD researcher to join our team at the University Medical Center Groningen (UMCG) to investigate the role of astrocytes in multiple sclerosis (MS) and their potential as therapeutic targets for remyelination.
Research Project
The successful candidate will work on a project that aims to reveal whether injury-naïve MS astrocytes functionally differ from injury-naïve normal and MS sibling astrocytes, including their response to inflammatory factors present in MS lesions, and how this may affect remyelination.
Methodologies
The researcher will employ a range of techniques, including human iPSC-derived glial and neuron cultures, morphometrics, RNA-sequencing analysis, proteomics, CRISPRa/i, and confocal microscopy.
Requirements
We are looking for an enthusiastic, motivated, and talented candidate with a Master's degree in Biomedical Sciences, (Cell) Biology, or Neuroscience and a strong scientific drive. Experience with human iPSCs or one of the techniques mentioned above will be an advantage.
What We Offer
We offer a full-time PhD position for the duration of four years, with a minimum salary of € 2,901,- gross per month in the first year and a maximum of € 3,677,- gross per month in the final year. In addition, the UMCG will offer you 8% holiday pay and 8.3% end-of-year bonus.
