Postdoc
Case Western Reserve University
We are seeking a highly motivated and skilled researcher in bioinformatics and systems biology to support collaborative, data-driven projects in Alzheimer’s Disease and related dementias. Our research focuses on understanding the temporal changes of key driver genes related to inflammatory changes over distinct clinical stages of AD and develop a clinical and research framework. Our goal is reaching to fundamental knowledge that can be used to develop treatments to stage and mitigate cognitive decline in AD and improve clinical care. Most recently, we discovered inflammatory pathway analyses predicting rapid cognitive decline in Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) stage of Alzheimer’s disease.
We employ next generation sequencing (NGS) technologies (RNAseq and scRNAseq) and proteomics (label-free and phosphoproteomics) to identify changes throughout the disease spectrum and carry out mechanistic studies to define the functions of these changes and their impact on the transcriptome and neurobiology. We are particularly interested in developing and testing hypotheses for novel pathways and biomarkers explaining these changes. The postdoctoral fellow will also work on integrating the vast amount of publicly available datasets and our novel datasets generated from patient samples in collaboration with the Cleveland Clinic.
The qualified candidate will:
- utilize systems analyses, network biology, pathway analysis techniques to analyze large omics datasets from proteomics, transcriptomics, and genomics.
- Present data at departmental seminars and scientific meetings, prepare manuscripts, and contribute preliminary data for grant proposals.
- Work/troubleshoot independently as well as understand and incorporate findings in the scientific literature into his/her research.
- Is expected to take a lead role in data analysis, interpretation, visualization, and manuscript preparation.
