Postdoctoral Positions in Molecular and Translational Neuroscience
A postdoctoral position in molecular and translational neuroscience is available immediately to study pathophysiology of dystonia or restless legs syndrome using gene targeted mouse models. The candidates will join a dynamic lab focusing on the function and dysfunction of basal ganglia and mouse models of movement disorders. Depending on the funding, the candidates are also expect to develop siRNA-based therapeutic treatment for DYT1 dystonia using genetically modified mouse models (Dang et al., Experimental Neurology, 196:452-463, 2005; Dang et al., Neuroscience Research, 56:470-4, 2006; Dang et al., PNAS USA, 103:15254-9, 2006; Hewett et al., PNAS USA, 104:7271-7276, 2007; Yokoi et al., J. Biochem. 143:39-47, 2008). Dystonia is defined clinically as involuntary, often sustained co-contraction of agonist and antagonist muscles causing abnormal and often painful postures or movements. It is generally believed to be mediated by the central nervous system and represents the th!
ird most common movement disorder after Parkinson's disease and tremor (Breakefield et al., Nature Review Neuroscience, 9, 222-234, 2008). Highly motivated candidates with solid publication record in international journals in the area of neuroscience, molecular biology, biochemistry, or cell biology are encouraged to apply. Experience in molecular or cell biology is desirable and knowledge in neuroscience or neurology is a plus.
