About this research opportunity

Students will learn to apply our established data analysis pipeline for single-cell spatial proteomics profiling of human brain tissues. Comparative analysis of Alzheimer’s and normal brain samples will be performed to investigate potential molecular mechanisms underlying Alzheimer’s disease.

Eligibility
