Neurobiochemisches LaborOpen OpportunitiesWe are seeking a highly motivated Master student (for a master thesis lasting 6-12 months) who is interested in conducting research on disease modeling using cells from attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) patients. The approach includes acquiring proficiency in handling human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs), neural stem cells (NSCs), and mature neuronal culture. The aim of the present work is to clarify the impact of methylphenidate on the release of dopamine and the alterations in the dopamine transporter availability, in conjunction with the sigma-1 receptor, in ADHD lines, as compared to controls. This may elucidate the discrepancies in response to methylphenidate between individuals with ADHD and those without the condition. - Cell Neurochemistry, Cellular Nervous System, Central Nervous System, Pharmacology and Pharmaceutical Sciences
