New Position in ALS Research

Wayne State University is developing a comprehensive clinical and research program focused on understanding and developing new treatments for ALS. We are recruiting a highly-motivated individual (MD/PhD or PhD) with the possibility of future advancement to a faculty position within the Department of Neurology and Center for Molecular Medicine and Genetics. Physician scientists and those with recent experience in related research areas are strongly encouraged to apply. The focus of the research will be to understand how communication occurs between cells, to understand what goes wrong in human tissues from patients with ALS, and to develop targeted therapeutics. Please send a CV and the names of 3 references to Dr. Jeffrey Loeb at  jloeb@med.wayne.edu.


Postdoctoral Fellow in Oligodendrocyte/MS Research

An immediate position if open for a talented PhD or MD scientist interested in how neurotrophic factor and neuregulin signaling modulate early oligodendrocyte development and how this may impact both diagnostic and therapeutic strategies in human MS.  The individual will work on chick and rodent oligodendrocyte development together with human tissues.  Please send a CV and the names of 3 references to Dr. Jeffrey Loeb at jloeb@med.wayne.edu.


GRADUATE STUDENTS

Students with interests in developmental and molecular neurobiology and/or how some of these early events teach us about diseases of the nervous system are cordially invited for a rotation within the laboratory.  We take many different approaches to answer the questions we are interested in providing a well-rounded scientific education.  Efforts are made so that each student  in the lab will have his/her own, independent project.
