Research Assistant/Associate

We have an opportunity for a Research Assistant/Associate to contribute to/make a leading contribution to a project “Combined targeting of oedema and neuronal plasticity as a new therapeutic framework to treat ischaemic stroke”, working with Dr Lorraine Work and in collaboration with colleagues at Aston University and the University of Oxford. The project aims to use a combination of in vitro and in vivo models of ischaemic stroke to determine the combined efficacy of targeting oedema while promoting plasticity in this setting.

The successful candidate will also be expected to contribute to the formulation and submission of research publications and research proposals as well as help manage and direct this complex and challenging project as opportunities allow.

Candidates should have specialist theoretical and practical knowledge of ischaemic stroke and/or cerebro- and/or cardiovascular disease pathophysiology and/or cell culture systems.

This post is full time and has funding for 27 months.

Informal enquiries should be directed to Dr Lorraine Work, Lorraine.Work@glasgow.ac.uk.
