The Germans Trias i Pujol Research Institute (IGTP) is seeking to incorporate a Research Technician to work on the project ‘Validation of liquid and imaging biomarkers for the diagnosis of prodromal dementia with Lewy bodies.’ PMP22/00100, Carlos III Health Institute, within the Genomics and Transcriptomics of Synucleinopathies (GTS) group, which focuses on the molecular characterization of Lewy body diseases. This project has significant social impact, especially for patients and their families.
The Research Technician will participate in a Research Project in Personalized and Precision Medicine funded to develop diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers for Lewy body disorders in early stages, in the development of diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers for Lewy body disorders and in the validation of the diagnostic potential of a miRNA-based signature and the prognostic power of RNA transcripts for dementia with Lewy bodies.
This entirely translational research project aims to offer solutions for patients, clinicians, and the development of therapeutic strategies. The successful accomplishment of the validation studies will be essential for the creation of a spin-off company.
