Research Fellow – Mouse Electrophysiologist

The Department of Neuromuscular Diseases is a centre of clinical and research excellence focused on understanding the causes and mechanisms of neuromuscular disorders and translating these findings into therapeutic advances.

The Nascimento Research Group is a newly established laboratory within the department, investigating spinal motor circuit neurophysiology in animal models of disease, including ALS, and in humans. We use a range of electrophysiological approaches in mice alongside high-density surface electromyography (HDsEMG) in humans.

We work closely with the Brownstone and Beato groups at UCL and are embedded within a collaborative research environment with access to extensive core facilities, including surgical, behavioural, histology, and microscopy resources.

About the role

We have an exciting opportunity for a Research Fellow to study neuromuscular and spinal circuit pathophysiolog...
