The P4Health Centre of Excellence is an interdisciplinary initiative focused on advancing Predictive, Preventive, Personalized, and Participatory (P4) approaches in health and medicine. Within the IRAP framework, the project’s scientific goal is to discover and validate novel therapeutic concepts aimed at counteracting symptoms of brain disorders associated with astrocyte pathology. The applied research programme is designed to deliver a detailed understanding of the mechanisms of astrocyte dysfunction and its impact on neuronal networks, building on the complementary expertise of a team with a strong publication record in reputable journals and proven experience in identifying nervous system pathomechanisms and developing prototype drug candidates. Project outcomes will be protected as intellectual property and will provide a foundation for translation through clinical studies and appropriate commercialisation pathways.

P4Health’s key features:
• Interdisciplinary centre advancing P4 approaches in health and medicine
• Applied, mechanism-driven research focused on astrocyte dysfunction and its effects on neuronal networks
• Strong scientific track record demonstrated through high-quality publications and prior discoveries in nervous system pathomechanisms
• Translation-oriented strategy, from concept validation to clinical studies and commercialisation
• Systematic protection and management of intellectual property to support downstream implementation

Main research goals/ Job description:

P4Health CoE is seeking a highly motivated Postdoctoral Researcher to conduct functional ultrasound (fUS) studies in rodent models within the framework of precision psychiatry. This position offers a high degree of scientific freedom and is ideally suited for candidates who wish to shape their own research focus, build independence, and contribute to a growing center with a strong translational mission.

Key responsibilities include:

• • Design, conduct, and analyze functional ultrasound (fUS) experiments in rodent models
