Position Description
The Yale Cerebrovascular Lab (YCVL) is recruiting one postgraduate research associate to join their group.
Dr. Nils Petersen’s Cerebrovascular Lab in the Department of Neurology aims to use novel neuromonitoring techniques to optimize cerebral blood flow following acute neurovascular injury. The focus of the last few years has been preventing neurologic worsening after ischemic stroke and subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). They are investigating the mechanisms through which delayed cerebral ischemia contributes to disability and poor outcome after anterior SAH using neuromonitoring techniques such as near-infrared spectroscopy and EEG.
