About the Role

We are looking to appoint a Post Doctoral Research Associate with a strong background in invivo work and experience carrying out subcutaneous injections. The project is funded by DEBRA UK and will explore the treatment of Junctional Epidermolysis Bullosa (JEB), a rare disorder causing sever skin blistering. We will compare different mechanisms for delivery of recombinant protein to the skin basement membrane in a mouse model of JEB. Further characterisation of JEB skin after treatment will include wound healing and transcriptomic analysis.

About You
