Hi
my lab is in São Paulo, Brazil. There is a postdoc position open for the periodo of 12 month, starting in 2020. The plan is to study neuroinflammation caused by SARS-CoV-2 infection in bioprinted neural tissue.
Besides the damages to the respiratory system, studies indicate that the central nervous system is also affected in severe cases of COVID-19. The main symptoms are headaches, seizures, and consciousness disturbance, and necropsies revealed that infected patients show neural degeneration. Infection can result in severe neurological complications such as viral encephalitis, toxic encephalitis, and acute cerebrovascular diseases. The working plan proposes the production of SARS-CoV-2 in a bioprinted neural tissue, followed by the analysis of neuroinflammatory response.
Experience required in 3D bioprinting or brain organoids or 3D culture or culture and differentiation of h-iPSC in neural cells. Knowledge of molecular biology techniques (qPCR, RNAseq), and cellular analysis (immunocytochemistry, flow cytometry, live-cell microscopy) is desirable.
To apply, email me your CV, a letter of motivation and two reference letters. Pre-selected candidates will be invited to a conference call.
Thank you!

Three D - Modelling of SARS-COV-2 - https://www.kolabtree.com/find-an-expert/subject/3d-printing . But whether this kind of 3-D Molecular mapping of SARS-COV-2 will lead to some advantages for Vaccine developement ?
Dear Jaydip,
we aim to study CNS infection by SARS-CoV-2, we're not working on vaccine develpment. We hope that our findings will help to understand the neurological sequelae described for patients recovered from Covid-19.
Thank you Madam Marimelia Porcionatto for sharing an amazing opportunity.
This is a great opportunity for people interested in joining a very good research team..
Dear Marimelia Porcionatto,
this is a very good possibility, thank you very much.
Dear Marimelia Porcionatto,
This is a good opportunity for me, I would like to work under you as a post doc.
I have PhD in Human Anatomy with specialization in Neuroscience. I will send my CV and application to you.
Thank you.
A very good opportunity to understand further more about SARS-Cov_2, good luck to the team!!!
Thank you Mudassar Klair
and Musa Samaila Chiroma for the interest in the position. I'll be looking forward for your applications.And thank you Pr David Lupande Mwenebitu for the good luck wishes!
All the best for your recruitment and success for your upcoming research!
Please check one more slide with the statistical information: after 6 months of pandemic statistics of covid-19 cases have been showing fantastic stability in being largely confined to the 30-50 degree belt (92%-97% of the world's totals).
Dear all,
I appreciate the recommendations, answers and applications. Eduardo Henrique Backes was selected to be the new postdoc in our lab.
Thank you all!
I would like to join post doc. My research area is in 3D bioprinting. If needed I will mail you my cv.
Hi
How nice that you have a lab. Can you test a drug on covid 19 treatment?
