2 Senior Project Associate, Project Fellow (Department of Zoology) vacancies at Calcutta University (CALUNIV)
Applications are invited by Calcutta University (CALUNIV) for filling 2 contractual posts of Senior Project Associate, Project Fellow (Department of Zoology) under a research project. Last Date for submission of applications is 26-03-2026.
| Post Name | Senior Project Associate, Project Fellow (Department of Zoology) |
| Project Name | Studying Redox Mechanisms in the Pathogenesis of Brain Ischemia |
| Project Description | This project investigates the complex biochemical pathways of oxidative stress and redox signaling that occur during and after a stroke (brain ischemia). When blood flow to the brain is restricted, an imbalance between the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and antioxidant defenses leads to neuronal death. The research focuses on identifying specific molecular "switches" in the redox system that could be targeted to protect brain tissue and improve recovery. This research is funded by the prestigious DBT-Ramalingaswami Re-entry Fellowship, a program designed to bring high-caliber Indian scientists back to India to lead cutting-edge biological research. |
