The Akizu lab has exciting opportunities for post-docsĀ 


The Akizu laboratory studies genetic and epigenetic mechanisms of neurodevelopmental and neurodegenerative disorders that affect children. Through their work, Dr. Akizu and her team hope to uncover diagnostic and therapeutic approaches for these children and to better understand mechanisms that underlay
human brain development and function.


The work in the Akizu Lab begins with the identification of novel diseaseassociated genetic variants, which are then introduced in human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) and mice to model the
neurodevelopmental disease.
Applying cutting-edge biochemical, histological and omic approaches to these models, the lab identifies therapeutically targetable cellular and molecular pathways, but also novel regulators of human neural development, function and survival. Their work has already led to the expansion the genetic causes of childhood neurodevelopmental disorders and to discover potential therapeutic routes that are currently under investigation.


The Akizu Laboratory seeks hard-working, creative and talented postdoctoralcandidates interested in joining their collaborative.
