About the Role

The Nizetic lab (https://www.qmul.ac.uk/blizard/all-staff/profiles/dean-nieti.html) is leading internationally in the establishment of cellular models of neurodevelopment, ageing and neurodegeneration, and their correction using small chemicals. The postholder will lead part of a project using hiPSC systems and cerebral organoids to substantially improve our understanding of the pathomechanisms of Down syndrome and Alzheimer’s dementia, and/or the design of hi-throughput chemical screening assays for phenotype correction.
