2. Postdoctoral Position
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
The goal of the research is to develop novel outcome measures and biomarkers of CNS and muscle involvement in Mendelian neuromuscular disorders such as muscular dystrophies and metabolic disorders that directly affect both brain and muscle function. These outcome measures will then be used in upcoming clinical trials in which these disorders will be genetically corrected, allowing determination and quantification of disease elements responsive to genetic correction, shedding light on the underlying pathophysiological processes. Methods currently employed include diffusion tensor imaging, tractography, brain resting state fMRI, whole body PET/MRI including DTI of all skeletal muscles. Patients being studied include those with genetic disorders directly affecting both brain and muscle structure and function, such as myotonic dystrophy, Duchenne muscular dystrophy, spinal muscular atrophy, ALS and GNE myopathy.

24. Postdoctoral Position
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
The Knowles laboratory employs genetic and genomic methods to study the molecular mechanisms that mediate cardiovascular disease risk and pathophysiology, especially insulin resistance. For genes identified through whole genome studies, we use “dry” and “wet” bench approaches to identify mechanisms by which causal variation is responsible for altered gene structure or function and employ tissue culture and genetic mouse models to identify how encoded factors participate in the disease process. The goal is translation of these findings to the clinic.
