About the LCSB The University of Luxembourg is an international research university with a distinctly multilingual and interdisciplinary character. The Luxembourg Centre for Systems Biomedicine (LCSB) is an interdisciplinary research centre of the University of Luxembourg. We conduct fundamental and translational research in the field of Systems Biology and Biomedicine in the lab, in the clinic and in silico. We focus on neurodegenerative processes and are especially interested in Alzheimer''s and Parkinson''s disease and their contributing factors. The LCSB recruits talented scientists from various disciplines: computer scientists, mathematicians, biologists, chemists, engineers, physicists and clinicians from more than 50 countries currently work at the LCSB. We excel because we are truly interdisciplinary, and together we contribute to science and society. Your role The Luxembourg Centre for Systems Biomedicine (LCSB) at the University of Luxembourg is looking for an ambitious and dynamic Doctoral Researcher to contribute to the project "Molecular and Cellular Alterations of Noradrenaline Modulated Memory Circuits in Alzheimer''s Disease" (NomAD). The NomAD project, funded by the Fondation du Pelican de Mie et Pierre Hippert Faber under the aegis of the Fondation de Luxembourg, is a collaborative effort with leading national and international institutions, including the Laboratoire National de Sante (LNS) in Luxembourg and the Institut de la Memoire et de la Maladie d''Alzheimer at La Pitie Salptriere Hospital in Paris, France. As a key member of this project, you will investigate how disruptions in the noradrenergic system affect the vulnerability of memory associated brain regions in Alzheimer''s disease (AD). Your work will include both in vivo and in vitro models, as well as advanced neuropathological analyses of human post mortem AD brain sles and you will help to uncover cellular signatures that could explain memory decline in AD patients. Your profile A Master''s degree (or equivalent) in biology, neuroscience, biomedicine, immunology, or a closely related scientific discipline Interest in neurodegeneration and experience with relevant techniques (e.g., cell culture, molecular biology, histology) is considered advantageous Previous experience working with mouse models or human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC) would be beneficial but is not mandatory Strong motivation to conduct impactful research and a willingness to learn new techniques An ability to work independently as well as within a collaborative, interdisciplinary research environment Excellent organisational and communication skills Proficiency in English (written and spoken); knowledge of French or German is a plus but not mandatory We offer Multilingual and international character. Modern institution with a personal atmosphere. Staff coming from 90 countries. Member of the "University of the Greater Region" (UniGR) A modern and dynamic university. High quality eq
