Research Opportunities in Molecular Neuropathology

The Dementia Laboratory, a multidisciplinary research group at the Indiana University School of Medicine, has openings for postdoctoral research fellows to contribute to the understanding of neurodegenerative diseases. Our research focuses on the molecular mechanisms of neurodegeneration, with a particular emphasis on the role of misfolded proteins in the development of Alzheimer's disease, frontotemporal dementias, Parkinson's disease, and other neurodegenerative disorders.

As a postdoctoral research fellow, you will have the opportunity to work with a team of experienced researchers and clinicians to design and conduct experiments, analyze data, and publish research findings in high-impact journals. You will also have the chance to participate in multidisciplinary projects integrating neuropathology with cutting-edge brain imaging, clinical neurology, protein chemistry, and molecular genetics.

The Dementia Laboratory's Brain Library contains specimens from over 2500 individuals, providing a unique resource for studying a wide range of neurodegenerative diseases. You will have access to state-of-the-art facilities and equipment, including light microscopy, immunohistochemistry, electron microscopy, and cryo-electron microscopy.

We are seeking highly motivated and talented individuals who are passionate about understanding the mechanisms of neurodegeneration and contributing to the development of new treatments for these devastating diseases. If you are interested in joining our team, please submit your application.
