A position is available in the laboratory of Dr. Kenneth Kosik to conduct research on mechanisms of Alzheimer’s disease and other neurodegeneration using stem cell-derived model systems using single cell RNA sequencing and lipid measurements. This will involve preparing brain organoids, glia and neurons from pluripotent stem cells. Furthermore, the appointee will conduct single-cell sequencing experiments, bioinformatic analysis of the transcriptomic data and lipid measurements.
