The University of British Columbia is seeking a highly qualified Neuroscience Researcher to join our team at the Djavad Mowafaghian Centre for Brain Health.

Job Summary:

This exciting opportunity involves developing and implementing cutting-edge research studies related to cellular processes associated with Alzheimer's disease (AD) and frontotemporal dementia. The successful candidate will maintain and advance a robust protocol for 3D bioprinting of iPSC-derived neurons, astrocytes, and microglia to study the pathophysiology of AD and FTD in a 3D environment.

The position requires strong research experience, excellent communication skills, tact, judgment, and discretion in working with senior professionals and collaborating with internal and external agencies. Errors in decision making may compromise the reputation of the PI's, the research team, and their collaborators, and funding.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Develop and implement research studies related to cellular processes associated with AD and FTD
  • Maintain and advance a robust protocol for 3D bioprinting of iPSC-derived tissues
  • Design and implement experiments using hiPSCs, cerebral organoids, CRISPR gene editing, transfections, imaging techniques, electrophysiology, and biochemical/molecular biology techniques
  • Lead grant applications in the field of neurosciences
  • Mentor and teach graduate, undergraduate, and Co-op students

Requirements:

We are seeking a candidate with a PhD in the field of neuroscience or a related field, and at least 2 years of postdoctoral training in hiPSC 3D extrusion-based bioprinting. Proven skills using hiPSCs studying the pathophysiology of neurodegenerative or other CNS disorders are essential. Strong analysis skills, ability to work professionally with colleagues, donors, and staff, and compliance with approved procedures and ethics regulations are also required.

Benefits:

The successful candidate will receive a competitive salary of $85,000 per annum, commensurate with qualifications and experience. The position offers opportunities for professional growth, mentorship, and collaboration with leading researchers in the field of neurosciences.
