København N
We offer a PhD fellowship in CSF dynamics commencing 1 November 2024 or as soon as possible hereafter.
Our group and research
Our research group focuses on the molecular mechanisms underlying water and ion homeostasis in the mammalian brain under both physiological and pathophysiological conditions. We resolve the transport mechanisms underlying cerebrospinal fluid secretion with a technical approach spanning from molecular properties of water transport proteins to their regulation at the cellular level and their integral function in rodent in vivo models of physiology and pathophysiology and associated animal behavior. Through extensive collaboration with the clinic, the laboratory performs CSF analysis of patient samples to elucidate the underlying etiology of pathologies such as post-hemorrhagic hydrocephalus.
Project description
The research project will focus on the role of choroid plexus in cerebrospinal fluid secretion and the dysregulation of transport proteins in animal models of disease. The techniques will rely heavily on rodent in vivo experimentations including determination of cerebrospinal fluid secretion rate, intracranial pressure measurements, etc. in addition to animal behavioural analysis. Cerebrospinal fluid secretion takes place across a secretory epithelium, and applicants from the field of epithelial transport (anywhere in the body) are strongly encouraged to apply.
Principal supervisor isProfessor Nanna MacAulay, Department of Neuroscience, [email protected], Direct Phone: +45 30267026.
Start: 1 November 2024 (or soon thereafter)
Duration: 3 years as a PhD student
