Offer Description
P4Health: Center of Excellence in Precise Phenotyping and BioDataBanking for Personalised Brain Health.
Project is carried out within the MAB/IRA programme of the Foundation for Polish Science.
The P4Health Centre of Excellence is an interdisciplinary initiative focused on advancing Predictive, Preventive, Personalized, and Participatory (P4) approaches in health and medicine. Within the IRAP framework, the project’s scientific goal is to discover and validate novel therapeutic concepts aimed at counteracting symptoms of brain disorders associated with astrocyte pathology. The applied research programme is designed to deliver a detailed understanding of the mechanisms of astrocyte dysfunction and its impact on neuronal networks, building on the complementary expertise of a team with a strong publication record in reputable journals and proven experience in identifying nervous system pathomechanisms and developing prototype drug candidates. Project outcomes will be protected as intellectual property and will provide a foundation for translation through clinical studies and appropriate commercialisation pathways.
P4Health’s key features:
• Interdisciplinary centre advancing P4 approaches in health and medicine
• Applied, mechanism-driven research focused on astrocyte dysfunction and its effects on neuronal networks
• Strong scientific track record demonstrated through high-quality publications and prior discoveries in nervous system pathomechanisms
• Translation-oriented strategy, from concept validation to clinical studies and commercialisation
• Systematic protection and management of intellectual property to support downstream implementation
Main research goals/ Job description:
Focus of the position is the submission of two manuscripts for publication and the elaboration of a project idea for commercialization. The data analysis skill set will be broadened und actively applied to contribute to the analysis of large functional ultrasound (f)US datasets.
Key responsibilities include:
