Postdoc Position --
A position is available in a multidisciplinary program aimed at
integrating neuropathology of Alzheimer's disease with cell culture
analyses of specific molecular events and mechanisms. Specifically, the
project will explore role of cytokines such as interleukin-1, S100beta,
and secreted APP in generating the neuropathological findings of
Alzheimer's. Studies will involve analysis of the interactions between
microglia, astrocytes, and neurons in culture.
Requirements include a Ph.D. or equivalent and experience with general
protein science (SDS-PAGE, immunological techniques) and basic
molecular biology. Three years of support are available.
