Postdoctoral Research Fellow – Molecular Neurophysiology (016P8) – applications close April 1

Job: Academic – Research Fellow
Faculty / Office: School of Advanced Medicine
Schedule: Full-time

The Australian School of Advanced Medicine (ASAM) is Australia’s first specialty medical school to be co-located with a private hospital on a University campus. Together, ASAM and the Macquarie University Hospital provides the latest in diagnostic and treatment technology and sets new standards in clinical care, medical education and research. ASAM at Macquarie University boasts a prestigious research centre with 70 PhD students working alongside a team of leading scientists.

The Molecular Neurophysiology group are seeking to appoint a full time Research Fellow to be responsible for the day-to-day running of a newly funded NHMRC Project aimed at determining the relative contribution of vascular remodelling over persistent sympathoexcitation as the cause of chronic hypertension in kidney disease, and the impact of the renin angiotensin system (RAS) on these systems. This will include studies that examine vascular remodelling across the whole cardiovascular system (both conduit and resistance vessels), direct measurement of sympathetic nerve activity to different targets, and assessing the influence of RAS inhibition on the vasculature and SNA.

This is a rare opportunity to develop your research career and participate in an NHMRC funded project within the Australian School of Advanced Medicine.

Appointment Type: Full-time, 2 year fixed-term appointment, available immediately.

Salary Package:
