Job Description
Postdoctoral fellow or PhD student position with Dr. Anastassia Voronova (University of Alberta, Canada) 🇨🇦
One of the fundamental questions in neurobiology focuses on how brain is built and regenerated.
Deficient oligodendrocytes and myelin are implicated in the pathobiological mechanisms of a variety of neurological disorders, including multiple sclerosis and neurodevelopmental disorders.
Conversely, restoration of normal oligodendrocytes and/or myelin is an attractive therapeutic target. The Voronova lab studies oligodendrocyte development and regeneration in mouse and human cell (hiPS) models that carry mutations in CX3CR1 gene, chemokine receptor associated with more severe MS progression, and ANKRD11 gene, chromatin remodeller and causative gene of neurodevelopmental KG syndrome.
