The RiSE program (Roche Internships for Scientific Exchange) is a highly competitive student research program at Roche. It offers the most talented postgraduate PhD and medical degree students the opportunity to be fully integrated into our interdisciplinary and international industry R&D environment. As a RiSE student you will enhance your competencies, gain valuable work experience with us, and eventually become part of a world-wide network of RiSE Alumni. The Neuroscience and Rare Diseases Discovery and Translational Area (NRD DTA) is developing medicines for a range of serious neurological diseases, including multiple sclerosis, Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, autism, spinal muscular atrophy, and Huntington’s disease. As a RiSE student in the NRD DTA you will join our Neurotransmitter Receptors Lab within the Systems Neuroscience Section at the Roche Innovation Center Basel, Switzerland. You will perform electrophysiological recordings in acute and organotypic brain slice preparations and use advanced labelling and standard molecular biological techniques to functionally assess myelination states in these in-vitro systems. You will be hosted and supervised by a Roche scientist and work as part of an experienced team that will provide guidance and the required infrastructure for your research.
