OPIS STANOWISKA:
| The P4Health Centre of Excellence is an interdisciplinary initiative focused on advancing Predictive, Preventive, Personalized, and Participatory (P4) approaches in health and medicine. Within the IRAP framework, the project’s scientific goal is to discover and validate novel therapeutic concepts aimed at counteracting symptoms of brain disorders associated with astrocyte pathology. The applied research programme is designed to deliver a detailed understanding of the mechanisms of astrocyte dysfunction and its impact on neuronal networks, building on the complementary expertise of a team with a strong publication record in reputable journals and proven experience in identifying nervous system pathomechanisms and developing prototype drug candidates. Project outcomes will be protected as intellectual property and will provide a foundation for translation through clinical studies and appropriate commercialisation pathways.
P4Health’s key features: • Interdisciplinary centre advancing P4 approaches in health and medicine Position description: The position is intended for a person holding a doctoral degree for no longer than 5 years, who participates in the project as a Research Team Leader. The 5-year period is counted from the year of obtaining the doctoral degree. This period begins with the annual data of obtaining the degree, and ends with the year preceding the completion date, which may occur through a competition. The 5-year period may be extended to include any interrupted periods of research work occurring after obtaining the degree, provided that the interruption lasts no less than 6 months. |
