Research Fellow

Ref: B02-08051
We are seeking a highly motivated and skilled research fellow to join the Dubowitz Neuromuscular Centre (DNC) to work on this exciting and promising project funded by Action Medical Research and LifeArc aiming in improving the effectiveness of treatments for Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy by combining therapies, specifically histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDAC1) with antisense oligonucleotides (AONs). The study will investigate whether coadministration of HDACi with AONs in DMD patients’ cells increases the amount of dystrophin protein produced. Increasing DMD protein production will ameliorate DMD and by using only previously developed drugs, positive findings from this project will be rapidly translated into the clinic.
