About this job
Do you want to engineer stem cells that can deliver therapies directly inside the brain? Then join the Multiplex Cell Engineering lab at the Department of Health Technology (DTU Health Tech), Technical University of Denmark, for a fully funded 3-year PhD scholarship supported by a Lundbeck Foundation Fellowship. Neurodegenerative diseases remain among the hardest conditions to treat because many therapeutic molecules cannot cross the blood-brain barrier. In this project, you will engineer human hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) as programmable vehicles for brain-targeted therapy. After transplantation, HSC-derived cells can enter the brain and acquire microglia-like properties, creating a unique opportunity to deliver therapeutic molecules from within diseased tissue.…
