Description
GENERAL SUMMARY/ OVERVIEW STATEMENT:
The McCance Center for Brain Health in the Department of Neurology at the Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) is a Harvard-affiliated Center in Boston well-poised to the discovery of novel tools and interventions that promote brain health.
The McCance Center Clinical Trials Unit (CTU) is building capacity for conducting state-of-the-art interventions ranging from small compounds, repurposed drugs and natural products to multi-domain lifestyle interventions for the prevention of neurological disorders (i.e., Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease, vascular dementia).
The McCance Center Brain Nutrition Laboratory (BNL) is hiring a Post-Doctoral Research Fellow in Brain Nutrition to leverage existing datasets to identify modifiable risk factors for mitigation through interventional studies in high-risk populations.
Current McCance Center faculty and staff are interdisciplinary, including expertise in nutrition, genetics, neurology, psychiatry, exercise, sleep, data sciences, clinical, epidemiological and basic research.
PRINCIPAL DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES:
The MGH-McCance Center for Brain Health-BNL has an open Post-Doctoral Research Fellow position to explore existing and establish new datasets that identify modifiable risk factors for mitigation through interventional studies in people at risk for dementia.
Candidates will have attained a Doctoral degree (i.e., PhD, ND, MD, ScD, or equivalent per NIH definition) in areas that may include nutritional epidemiology, medicine, epidemiology, or nutritional biochemistry/biology with experience in human investigations.
Specific roles and responsibilities include:
