Rotations We always welcome rotation students who are interested in learning more about the eye and the techniques the lab utilizes. Most rotation projects can be integrated into a Ph.D. thesis afterwards if the candidate desires to continue with this line of research. In my lab we use molecular biology, genetics, histology, virology and surgical procedures on mice to conduct our research. You will be working in an environment that is focused on translational research and gaining basic science knowledge on disease that affect vision in order to develop better therapeutic strategies to the currently available strategies. The goal of the lab is to move as quickly as possible from a basic science discovery to a therapeutic application. The basic science research the lab is conducting focuses around the role of metabolism and the Insulin/mTOR pathway in photoreceptors. Interested in a rotation? Email Dr. Punzo and ask if a project is currently available.
One rotation student is expected in the lab to characterize the expression and function of Drosophila gustatory receptor 28b (Gr28b) in phototransduction and taste sensation. Please contact Dr. Yang Xiang for details.<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /><o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> Yang Xiang, Ph.D. University of Massachusetts Medical School Department of Neurobiology, LRB 725 364 Plantation Street Worcester, MA 01605 USA phone: 508-856-6816 (office) e-mail: yang.xiang@umassmed.edu<o:p></o:p>
Dr. Henninger is a vascular neurologist with research interest in the neurobiology of axonal injury associated with traumatic brain injury and its contribution to functional outcome.
Immediate opening! Two postdoctoral positions are available immediately to study cellular andmolecular mechanisms resulting in immunosuppression after alcohol use. Thefocus of this research is the role of monocytes and dendritic cells indecreased antigen-specific T cell activation after alcohol use.Intracellular signalling mechanisms resulting in decreased NF-kBactivation and inflammatory cytokine induction after acute alcoholconsumption are being investigated. Please contact Dr. Szabo for details.
