Postdoc position in Stem Cell DiseaseModeling

Description:

The focus of the team aims at the use of human pluripotent stem cells to model human diseases, which lead to cardiomyopathy and heart failure. Aspecial focus is put upon progressive cardiomyopathies caused by cardiac progenitor depletion and heart remodeling due to cardiac progenitor genome instability. The SCDM uses reprogrammed human patient cells, as well as human embryonic stem cells with edited genome, to create models of monogenic diseases involving cardiomyopathy. The team also complements stem cell-based modeling with the analysis of both animal models and human samples. The SCDM team has also developed novel technology to analyze mechanoelectrical coupling in cardiac syncytia developed from patients derived stem cells, specifically cardiac syncytium based biosensor on atomic force microscope.
