PhD positions in neuroinflammation research

We offer thirteen PhD positions (Early Stage Researcher) for three years to undertake research in neuroinflammation. This research is supported by the Marie Curie Initial Training Network (ITN) “nEUROinflammation” within the EU Seventh Framework Programme for Research and Technological Development (2007-2013). The scientific goal of nEUROinflammation is to investigate inflammatory mechanisms in stroke and multiple sclerosis with a special focus on bone-marrow derived macrophages, dendritic cells, the endothelium, and microglia.  A unique feature of our consortium is to combine stroke and MS research in order to release synergies between the fields and to provide PhD students with a comprehensive picture of neuroinflammation.  By employing a range of experimental and translational techniques, this ITN aims at one goal: to modulate basic neuroinflammatory mechanisms for the treatment of neurological diseases.

 

The PhD students will be hosted by 16 academic or industrial partner organizations in Germany, Italy, France, Spain, Finland, Poland, Netherlands, and Switzerland. For additional job details and the main activities in each project of nEUROinflammation, please follow the link www.neuroinflammation.eu... (lire la suite)

COLLOQUE SCMC 2013 à PARIS

Le colloque 2013 de la société vous accueillera à Paris le 12 février 2013 qui sera l'occasion de vous écouter et de discuter ensemble de vos derniers travaux. Par ailleurs, les conférences plénières permettront d'aborder le thème des maladies cérébrovasculaires et des troubles psychiatriques au travers de 2 conférences plénières présentées par Isabelle LOUBINOUX (DR INSERM, Toulouse) sur le thème  "Les inhibiteurs de recapture de la sérotonine améliorent la récupération fonctionnelle après un accident vasculaire cérébral" et Annie ANDRIEUX (DR CEA, Grenoble) sur le thème "Souris déficientes pour MAP6/STOP: un modèle expérimental de troubles neuro-développementaux reliés à la schizophrénie".

Postdoctoral Position Available at Loma Linda University, Departments of Pediatrics and Physiology, California

A postdoctoral position is available in the laboratory of Jerome Badaut, Ph.D., interested in the neurovascular and blood-brain barrier dysfunctions after brain injuries. This position is part of a NIH funded project involving the potential therapeutic effects of a JNK inhibitor and silencing RNA targeting Aquaporin 4 in juvenile traumatic brain injury. The ideal candidate would be a recent Ph.D. or M.D./Ph.D. with a background in rat or mice TBI model surgeries and/or some experience with immunohistochemistry and western blot. The candidate will also be expected to work effectively with graduate and undergraduate students. Detailed information can be found at http://www.llu.edu/medicine/basic-sciences/faculty/physiology/badaut-jerome.page


Interested scientists should send a CV, list of references, and cover letter to jbadaut@llu.edu
