Description

Applications are invited for a computational biologist position jointly held in the labs of Dr Eunchai Kang and Dr Mike Morgan at the University of Aberdeen. We seek to appoint a creative, experienced and motivated individual to unravel the impact of APOE mutations on neuro-immune crosstalk and Alzheimer’s disease pathogenesis using single-cell ‘omics from human brain organoids. The collaboration involving cutting-edge neuroscience (Dr Eunchai Kang) and computational algorithm development (Dr Mike Morgan) is ideal for an independent and highly motivated individual. This is an Alzheimer’s Society-funded project that integrates single-cell ‘omic profiling of human brain cerebral brain organoids with genetic risk of Alzheimer’s disease (AD).
