Research Area:
The research focuses on understanding the post-stroke response in the brain, particularly the accumulation and maturation of induced neuroblasts (iNBs) in the perivascular niche and identifying strategies to promote neuronal regeneration.
Location:
Planegg, Munich, Germany
Eligibility/Qualification:
- PhD in neuroscience, biology, biomedicine, or a related field
- Strong background in neurobiology, stem cell biology, or regeneration research
- Experience with in vivo models (preferably mouse)
- Hands-on experience with modern molecular and cellular techniques
- Experience in single-cell transcriptomics and/or bioinformatics analysis is desirable.
- Strong publication record relative to career stage
- Excellent English communication skills (written and spoken)
Job Description:
- Design, plan, and execute independent research projects within the framework of CRC 1744
- Investigate the cellular composition and molecular regulation of the post-stroke perivascular niche using in vivo models.
- Apply and further develop techniques, including single-cell RNA sequencing and spatial transcriptomics.
- Perform functional experiments related to neuronal differentiation and regeneration.
- Analyze and interpret complex multi-omics datasets
- Collaborate with interdisciplinary partners within CRC 1744
- Prepare manuscripts for publication and present results at international conferences.
