Short description of the position:

The Institute for Biomedicine, located at Bolzano's NOI Techpark, is a key component of Eurac Research, dedicated to improving health through precision prevention research. This interdisciplinary effort seeks to predict, slow or preempt illness progression by understanding genetic, biological, environmental, and lifestyle factors. Utilizing a decade-long population study in collaboration with the South Tyrolean Healthcare Service, the institute offers access to extensive data and biological materials suitable for such research. With a focus on neurological, cardiovascular, and metabolic health, the team employs state-of-the-art labs and innovative management to span the full translational research cycle, from data generation to potential clinical application.

We are seeking a Junior Researcher to join the Molecular Neurodegeneration team within the Translational Biology group. The research will focus on studying disease mechanisms using brain models derived from patient-derived cells and 3D organoids. The successful candidate will work on two parallel projects: the validation of experimental therapeutics for Parkinson's disease as part of a larger translational biology initiative and the assessment of proinflammatory signatures in microglial cells derived from Parkinson's disease patients, a project funded by the Ministry of Health.

Tasks:

  • Culture neuronal and glial cells derived from patients' samples
  • Perform molecular biology experiments (qPCR, ddPCR, Western blotting)
  • Perform immunostaining and microscopy imaging

Requirements:

  • Master's degree in biology, biotechnologies or related fields
  • Laboratory experience in molecular and cellular biology
  • Excellent communication skills
  • English language proficiency
