Laboratory Sciences Professional (Open Rank: Entry - Intermediate) - 35949 University Staff
The Bonney Laboratory, opening in the Department of Anesthesiology in January 2025, will investigate small vessel disease in the context of neurodegenerative diseases. Our research will focus on the role of perivascular cells in maintaining the integrity and function of brain vascular networks. Specifically, we aim to understand the contributions of lesser-known perivascular cell types, such as fibroblasts and macrophages, in regulating brain vascular dynamics. We are interested in exploring how these cells regulate vascular function at both the cellular and ultrastructural levels, and how alterations in these perivascular cells contribute to disease progression.We are currently seeking a professional research assistant to support lab management, including the maintenance of the mouse colony, and to assist with ongoing experiments. These experiments include, but are not limited to, in vivo two-photon microscopy, immunohistochemistry, single-cell transcriptomics, and 3D electron microscopy. Key responsibilities will include preparing solutions and samples, operating and maintaining lab instruments, and conducting data collection and analysis. The position offers an excellent opportunity to learn cutting-edge technologies, gain insights into the pathophysiology of perivascular cells, and support your professional development in a collaborative research environment.The ideal candidate will have a background in neuroscience, cardiovascular science, or a related field. While experience with techniques such as animal surgery, fluorescence imaging (epifluorescent, confocal, two-photon, etc.), histology, image analysis, fluorescence-activated cell sorting, RNA extraction, and electron microscopy is not required, familiarity with any of these methods will be considered a plus. Provide support researching issues and developing recommendations to resolve process, unit, and related issues
