Postdoctoral fellow or PhD student position with Dr. Anastassia Voronova (University of Alberta, Canada)
One of the fundamental questions in neurobiology focuses on how brain is built and regenerated. Deficient oligodendrocytes and myelin are implicated in the pathobiological mechanisms of a variety of neurological disorders, including multiple sclerosis and neurodevelopmental disorders. Conversely, restoration of normal oligodendrocytes and/or myelin is an attractive therapeutic target. The Voronova lab studies oligodendrocyte development

Mouse functional neurogenetics of rare diseases – Université de Montréal
Project Overview Since 2020, we have collaborated with a patient association with whom we have discovered new genetic variations in a gene that had never before been implicated in neurological diseases. We have access to patient cells and have generated numerous lossof- function models in this gene: KO mouse model, humanized mouse model, conditional KO
