**Post-Doctoral Research Fellow - Experimental Neuropathology Unit**

**Department**: Biomedical Sciences
**Location**: Humanitas University, Rozzano (MI), Italy
**Contract Type**: Fixed-term contract, 12 months renewable

**Position Summary**

**Title**: _Dissecting microglia vulnerability to stress response in Multiple Sclerosis through human iPSC modelling_
**Objective**: Investigate molecular mechanisms underlying microglial vulnerability to cellular senescence in Multiple Sclerosis (MS), using human iPSC-derived models and advanced gene editing techniques.

**Research Project Overview**

The MiST-MS project shifts focus from lymphocyte-driven inflammation to glial cell responses, particularly microglial senescence, as key drivers of chronic inflammation and disability in MS. The project integrates:

- **hiPSC-derived microglia models**:

- **Genome-wide CRISPR-Cas9 screenings**:

- **Single-cell CRISPR-seq and multi-omics integration**:

- **Organoid-based brain aging models**

This innovative pipeline aims to identify therapeutic targets to halt MS progression by rejuvenating microglial function.

**Key Responsibilities**
- Culturing human iPSCs, neural precursor cells, and brain organoids
- Performing CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing
- Differentiation of hiPSCs into microglia and other neural cell types
- Data analysis and interpretation in collaboration with computational teams

**Required Qualifications**
- PhD in Biology, Biotechnology, Molecular Biology, Biomedical Sciences, or related fields
- Proven experience in:
- hiPSC culture and differentiation
- CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing
- Fluent written and spoken English
- Strong scientific and professional track record

**Preferred Skills**
- Experience with brain organoid models
- Familiarity with single-cell sequencing and multi-omics data
- Ability to work independently and collaboratively in a multidisciplinary team
- Cover letter explaining why you want to join the team
- Update CV
- Contact information of three referees
