Scheduled Hours40The Cremins lab works at the spatial biology-technology interface to understand chromatin-to-synapse communication during neural circuit activation in the mammalian brain. We aim to understand how chromatin works through long-range physical folding mechanisms to encode neuronal specification and long-term synaptic plasticity in healthy and diseased neural circuits. We pursue a multi-disciplinary approach integrating data across biological scales in the brain, including molecular Chromosome-Conformation-Capture sequencing technologies, single-cell imaging, optogenetics, genome engineering, induced pluripotent stem cell differentiation to neurons/organoids, and in vitro and in vivo electrophysiological measurements. Our long-term scientific goal is to dissect the fundamental mechanisms by which chromatin architecture causally governs genome function and, ultimately, long-term synaptic plasticity and neural circuit features in healthy mammalian brains as well as during the onset and progression of neurodegenerative and neurodevelopmental disease states. Our long-term mentorship goal is to develop a diverse cohort of next-generation scientists cross-trained in molecular and computational approaches.

No Duties and Responsibilities The Department of Molecular Pharmacology and Neuroscience at Loyola University Chicago is recruiting a Staff Scientist for Dr. Monsheel Sodhi's newly funded projects investigating stress-related cognitive dysfunction. Description: We are seeking highly motivated and creative Staff Scientist to join a dynamic Research Team exploring fundamental questions about the molecular basis of cognition and stress resilience. Projects will be data-driven, using a reverse translational approach. Our recent work revealed that an epitranscriptomic process known as RNA editing, is abnormally regulated in several neurological disorders. Following these studies of Human Brain, we are testing the effects of stress on Mouse behavior, Neuronal Morphology and Neurochemistry. Our results suggest that prenatal stress triggers abnormalities in the glutamate system and in RNA editing, which may be precursors for cognitive dysfunction. We have consistently identified sex differences in these data. The objective of this Research is to identify new targets for improved therapeutic interventions. Trainees who join Dr. Sodhi's Lab will gain experience in Molecular Genetics, Gene expression studies of rodent or human tissue, behavioral Pharmacology, mammalian cell culture, in addition to gaining expertise in the broader area of stress Neurobiology.
