PhD Position – High-Throughput Proteomics Analysis of Environmental Stressors' Impact on Health
The Protein Research Group , Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology is seeking applications for a fully funded Ph D position within an exciting EU consortium project. This role offers a unique opportunity to contribute to cutting-edge environmental health research by using advanced proteomics techniques.
Project Description
The project aims to gain deep mechanistic insights into how environmental stressors, such as air pollution, noise, particulate matter, ultrafine particles, and aeroallergens, affect health. We aim to identify the molecular pathways linking these environmental factors to chronic non-communicable diseases by focusing on the brain-heart axis.
The candidate will utilize high-throughput proteomics, redox proteomics, and phosphoproteomics to analyse samples from cells, mice, and human subjects. This research will be conducted in collaboration with project partners, providing a comprehensive approach to understanding exposure-triggered health outcomes and identifying potential intervention strategies.
