Postdoctoral Researcher

The Garcia group at the University of Helsinki seeks a highly motivated Postdoctoral Researcher to investigate how toxic RNAs disrupt cellular energy metabolism and drive dysfunction in neurodegenerative and neuromuscular disorders. The researcher will utilize Caenorhabditis elegans and mammalian cell systems to study the molecular mechanisms of repeat-expansion RNAs, focusing on early metabolomic disruptions and their underlying pathways. This two-year position offers support for independent fellowship applications and access to state-of-the-art research infrastructure.
