Postdoctoral Research Associate

Full Job Description

We have one funded NIH grant. The grant is in neonatal rodents exposed to hypoxia-ischemia-related brain injury with a focus on neuroprotection. We are interested in understanding the effects of one neuroprotective agent on ischemia and inflammation signaling in blood-brain barrier function and on brain injury in newborns. We have very exciting data to show that the neuroprotective agent has major neuroprotective effects.
