Your jobDo you want to help find out what is really going on in Alzheimer's disease? Why does the disease sweep through the brain in such a determined manner? Why do amyloid aggregates form in certain brain regions and not others? Why are some brain regions devastated and others spared?
In our previous work, we have identified a new mode of amyloid interactions based on local sequence similarity to aggregation-prone regions and the National Institute on Aging has just granted us a 5-year project to investigate the interaction of amyloid-beta and tau with other brain region-specific
The project entails:
- a genome-wide computational screen for specific (heterotypic) interactions between the aggregation-prone regions of amyloid-forming proteins and the background proteome
- testing the candidate proteins in cellular models and then in mice
- biophysical analyses to discern the exact mechanism by which heterotypic interactions change amyloid
We re looking for a postdoc to join a growing team to take this project to
