Job Description
Job Description
Principal Investigator, Celine Riera, PhD is looking for a Research Associate to join the team!
When the work you do every single day has a crucial impact on the lives of others, every effort, every detail, and every second matters. This shared culture of happiness, passion, and dedication pulses through Cedars-Sinai, and it’s just one of the many reasons we rank as one of the top hospitals in the nation by U.S. News & World Report.
Are you ready to be a part of breakthrough research?
The Riera Laboratory studies the neurocircuits controlling energy homeostatic processes in response to environmental cues. We investigate how sensory information is processed in the hypothalamus in response to predator smell, temperature changes and food cues. Our long-term goal is to understand how impaired processing of sensory information can alter metabolic health and contributes to the aging process. For example: Is the reduced ability to detect cold temperatures associated with decreased sympathetic activation of brown adipose tissue thermogenesis and/or white adipose tissue lipolysis and therefore increased weight gain? We use cell-specific viral vectors targeting brain neurons, neuron activity mapping, chemogenetic stimulation and neuron calcium imaging to examine the role of specific cell types in metabolism. We also use diet-induced obesity, diabetes and neurodegenerative disease models, including Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease-like pathologies to examine the maladaptive consequences of neuronal dysfunction in disease.
