Post-doc Development of a 3D in vitro spinal cord model for the study of axon regeneration
Position: Post-doctoral Position
Deadline: 22 January 2024
Employment Start Date: 1 April 2024
Contract Length: one year
City: Torino
Country: Italy
Institution: University of Torino
Department: Neuroscience
Description:
The project aims to develop in vitro, by means of 3D bio-printing, a complex three-dimensional model of the spinal cord, including different types of neurons and glial cells. This platform will be useful for studying how axons degenerate in the event of injury and for testing new regenerative approaches.
We are looking for young motivated graduated students or post-docs with a degree in Biology, Biotechnology, Medicine and Surgery, Pharmacy, Medical Engineering or related disciplines interested in basic research.
Suggested skills: experience in cell cultures, immunocytochemistry, molecular analysis and microscopy
