PhD Opportunities in Molecular Dynamics in Sweden

The Biomarkers in Brain Disease research group at Lund University is recruiting a PhD student to work on biomarkers and disease mechanisms in Huntington’s disease and related neurodegeneration. The project is centred on how the body’s biological clock, sleep and circadian rhythms may influence disease progression, building on the idea that disruptions in timing systems are not only symptoms but may also contribute to neurodegenerative processes. The doctoral project combines in vitro and in vivo...
