工作機會

工作內容:

The postdoctoral fellow will be expected to

(1) design/conduct new experiments,

(2) present his/her results at lab, institutional and national meetings, and

(3) prepare manuscripts for publication. 

應徵資格:

A postdoctoral research position is available in the Institute of Biomedical Sciences, Academia Sinica to study the neural pathogenesis of myotonic dystrophy (DM), an inherited micro-satellite expansion disease.

The lab has a special focus on the role of post-transcriptional regulation in DM1 pathogenesis.

We utilize primary neuronal culture, animal models and multi-omics approaches to study how the toxic RNA transcribed from the micro-satellite (CTG) expansion disrupts the functions of RNA binding proteins leading to dysregulation of metabolic activities and vasculature in neurodegenerative and neurodevelopmental diseases.

Candidates should hold a doctoral degree, and have background in neuroscience, cardiovascular, molecular and/or cell biology. Experience for performing mouse experiments is preferred.

Candidates with strong motivation and interests in working on the molecular mechanism of neurological diseases are encouraged to apply.
