Postdoctoral Studies in Mitochondrial Dysfunction in Neurodegeneration: The Division of Molecular Metabolism at the Department of Medical Biochemistry and Biophysics, Karolinska Institutet, seeks a highly motivated postdoctoral researcher to join the research group of Prof. Nils-Göran Larsson and Dr. Roberta Filograna. The successful candidate will conduct research on the role of mitochondrial dysfunction in Parkinson’s disease using patient material and different animal models. The research aims to unravel how mitochondrial fitness is involved in PD pathophysiology and in the maintenance of dopamine neurons by employing a broad set of biochemical and molecular analyses, cutting-edge technologies, and genetically modified mouse models.
