Postdoctoral Researcher in Dementia Mechanisms

Nuffield Department of Clinical Neurosciences (NDCN), Dorothy Crowfoot Hodgkin Building, Sherrington Road, Oxford, OX1 3QU The postholder will join the Cader Lab at the Kavli Institute for Nanoscience Discovery, University of Oxford, to lead experimental work for an ARUK Major Project grant. The project will be investigating how microglia respond to challenges in brain organoid models. This is an exceptional opportunity for a motivated postdoctoral scientist to contribute to a highly innovative Alzheimer’s Research UK-funded programme at the interface of stem-cell biology, neuroimmunology, spatial multi-omics and functional neuroscience. The postholder will benefit from the Cader Lab’s expertise in iPSC disease modelling, human microglia–neuron systems, genome engineering and multi-modal profiling, and will work within a collaborative environment focused on understanding how microglial responses to neuronal injury become protective or harmful in Alzheimer’s disease. The project will ge...
