Temple Universityの Shriners Hospitals Pediatric Research Center (SHPRC)でポスドクをしている大竹洋輔と申します。現在、自分のボスであるDr. Shuxin Liが新たに博士研究員（ポスドク）を募集しています。
詳細は下記の通りですが、当研究室では、脊髄損傷などによる中枢神経損傷後の神経再生を促す新規因子の探索およびその分子メカニズムの解明に関する研究をしています。また、ペプチドドラッグ、ウィルスベクターを用いた脊髄損傷の新規治療法の開発も行っています。分子生物学、生化学、細胞生物学の研究経験を持ち、神経再生研究に興味のある研究者を募集しています。フィラデルフィアは、日本と気候がほとんど同じで、日本食材も手に入りやすいので、生活しやすい場所です。
興味のある方は、直接Dr. Li (Shuxin.li@temple.edu)に連絡するか、また日本語で質問等ありましたら、気軽に大竹(tuf10871@temple.edu)までメールしてください。研究内容はもちろん、生活に関することなど、なんでも結構です。

Postdoctoral fellow positions are available to study neuronal repair, axon regeneration and myelination in the CNS in Shriners Hospitals Pediatric Research Center (SHPRC) at Temple University in Philadelphia. The major goals of our research projects are to understand the basic mechanisms underlying neural injury and axon regeneration and remyelination failure in the CNS and to develop novel/successful strategies to promote axon regeneration, remyelination and functional recovery after injury and in neurodegenerative disorders (for details see: Biomaterials 35:4610-26, 2014; J Neurosci 31: 14051-66, 2011; J Neurosci 30: 963-8, 2010; J Neurosci 28: 8914-28, 2008; J Neurosci 27: 4154-64, 2007; Nature 417:547-51, 2002; J Neurosci 23: 4219-27, 2003; Neuron 38: 187-99, 2003, and J Neurosci 24: 10511-20, 2004). Our lab employs a number of in vitro and in vivo research approaches, including molecular/cellular neurobiology, protein biochemistry, genetic and pharmacological method!
s, neurite/axon outgrowth, in vivo axon lesion models (such as spinal cord injury, optic nerve crush and EAE) and multiple behavioral evaluations in rodents.

Highly motivated individuals with a strong background in neuron/axon/myelin injury models, behavioral tests, molecular and cellular neurobiology and biochemistry are encouraged to apply. Candidates should have a Ph.D., M.D./Ph.D. or equivalent in the field of neuroscience, molecular/cellular biology, biomedicine or biochemistry. Please send CV and a brief summary of research interests to:
