An MRC-funded postdoctoral Research Associate position in Organoid Neurobiology is available for up to 4 years in the laboratory of Dr András Lakatos at the University of Cambridge. The research group focuses on developing and using 3D human organoid models for mechanistic discoveries in neurodevelopment and neurodegenerative diseases at single-cell resolution. This exciting wet lab-based project aims to elucidate how risks can modify molecular pathology in various neural cell types to inform treatment strategies in Motor Neuron Disease (MND)/Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS). The successful applicant will generate MND/ALS human organoid and other stem cell-based models developed in the laboratory and will use genomic and protein perturbations, combined with high-resolution imaging and functional assays in mechanistic studies.
