Research Position open at the Boston University Medical School, JP VA Medical Campus, and VA-BU-SLI Brain Bank
Research Description: We are currently seeking a postdoctoral fellow to work in the laboratory of Dr. Ann McKee on the molecular biology of trauma-induced neurodegenerative disease. The lab is focused on characterizing and elucidating the mechanisms of Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy (CTE). The project would involve the study of the tauopathy and abnormal TDP-43 in CTE using protein biochemistry, genetics, and RNA analysis on post-mortem human tissue, animal models, and tissue culture.
Qualifications: Ph.D., M.D. or equivalent from an accredited institution with a background in molecular biology or related field.
Primary responsibilities:
· Research design and technical assistance to investigators
· Develop & conduct high quality substantive & methodological research
· Publish peer-reviewed articles, book chapters, and/or books
· Teach techniques to others including technicians and students
To apply, please email a cover letter and resume to Lauren Murphy at [email protected]. An in-person interview will follow for top applicants.
