Responsibilities
Details of Research Project:
The Blanchard Laboratory is seeking highly skilled creative and motivated scientists to join our team studying how genetic and environmental factors shape the human brains vulnerability to neurodegenerative disease.
Our research focuses on uncovering the cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying Alzheimers disease and related neurodegenerative disorders with the goal of identifying new therapeutic strategies. To accomplish this the lab develops and applies advanced human iPSC-based brain models including multicellular organoid and assembloid systems that recapitulate key aspects of human brain biology. These platforms are integrated with genomic computational and systems-level approaches to understand how genetic risk factors and environmental exposures drive disease processes.
Technical Duties: (include any protocols)
Projects in the laboratory span multiple areas of neurodegeneration research including:
Genetic risk mechanisms in Alzheimers disease (e.g. APOE biology)
Neurovascular and glial contributions to neurodegeneration
Lipid metabolism and metabolic stress in the aging brain
Human brain organoid and assembloid engineering
Multi-omics analysis of human brain tissue and disease models
Our experimental platforms combine human iPSC models post-mortem human brain analysis and mouse models enabling mechanistic discoveries that directly inform translational research.
