About the Laboratory
Dr. Stewart Anderson has a postdoctoral fellowship in human stem cell- based translational neuroscience available in his lab at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia/University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine (https://www.research.chop.edu/anderson-laboratory). We are using human stem cell derived excitatory and inhibitory neurons, astrocytes, microglia, and neurovascular-like cells in mono-and mixed carpet cultures, as well as organoid differentiations, as tools for the study of gene-gene and gene-environment interactions in neuropsychiatric disease. Illnesses of particular interest include schizophrenia, autism, and epilepsy, with emphasis on mitochondrial influences on synaptic transmission and symptom penetrance.
This position requires a strong desire to learn about forebrain development in relation to neuropsychiatric disease in a highly collaborative environment. Cell culture experience, especially with mouse or human ES or IPS cells, is strongly preferred. Alternatively, experience in live fluorescence imaging of cellular processes is strongly preferred. Additional experience in developmental neuroscience and basic molecular biology (i.e., basic RNA-seq informatics, RT-PCR, basic cloning, CRISPR-CAS or other gene editing) is also preferred. True fluency in spoken and written English is required. Applicants should submit a CV, statement of research interests, and contact information of three references to: Stewart A. Anderson by email: sande@pennmedicine.upenn.edu
