The Opportunity:
A postdoctoral research fellow position is available in Dr. Kathryn Bowles’ lab at the University of Edinburgh UK DRI centre. We are looking for a researcher interested in investigating the functional and transcriptomic effects of astrocytic tau pathology in progressive supranuclear palsy, using human iPSC models and brain tissues.
The postdoc will be responsible for culturing and differentiating iPSC lines, and carrying out various manipulations using molecular biology techniques and transcriptomic assessment, as well as conducting spatial transcriptomics on human brain tissues.
The postdoc will be expected to work with a high degree of independence in day-to-day work, and is encouraged to contribute their own ideas to the direction of the project. Training will be provided as necessary. The successful candidate must be able to work closely with others as a member of a research team, and will produce material for publication and dissemination.
