The Rajani Lab investigates the mechanisms of white matter damage in vascular and other dementias. We use a range of innovative methodologies and models to understand oligodendrocyte changes in vascular disease, and the interaction of these with neuronal activity. In this project the Research Fellow will use in vitro and ex vivo techniques to investigate the relationship between endothelial cells, oligodendrocytes and neurons in the context of Alzheimer’s and vascular dementias.
This post is full-time (35 hours per week) and is 100% on campus.
The salary for this post is £41,064 to £48,822 per annum.
