Title HMS - Postdoctoral Fellow in Genetics

School Harvard Medical School

Department/Area HMS Genetics

Position Description
The laboratory of Dr. Yankner at Harvard Medical School is seeking a highly motivated Postdoctoral Fellow to investigate the molecular genetics and neurobiology underlying microglial and oligodendrocyte function in the context of aging, neurodegeneration, and Alzheimer’s disease. The successful candidate will join a dynamic and collaborative research environment focused on uncovering the cellular and molecular mechanisms driving cognitive decline and neurodegenerative processes.

Responsibilities:


+ Conduct biochemical, genetic, and transcriptomic analyses of key regulators of brain aging using mouse and cerebral organoid models.

+ Design and perform experiments to study the roles of microglia and oligodendrocytes in

+ neurodegeneration and cognitive function...
