A fully funded PhD opportunity is available at University College London (UCL), in collaboration with the Institute of Sport, Exercise and Health (ISEH), UCL Institute of Cognitive Neuroscience (ICN), and the Ministry of Defence Police (MDP). The research focuses on developing a Fatigue Risk Management System to reduce risks associated with night shifts and long shifts, specifically targeting overtime decision-making within the MDP. The successful candidate will join the MDP as a staff member while undertaking the PhD at UCL. Supervision will be provided by Flaminia Ronca (ISEH) and Vincent Walsh (ICN), both experienced academics in the fields of sport science and cognitive neuroscience. The project is ideal for candidates with backgrounds in psychology, neuroscience, sports science, or related disciplines, and offers a unique opportunity to work at the intersection of occupational health, cognitive science, and public health. The programme is fully funded, though specific financial details are not listed. Applications are open until 7th September 2025, and interested candidates should apply via the official Ministry of Defence Police recruitment portal. This position is particularly suited for those interested in research that has direct impact on workplace health and safety, with a strong interdisciplinary and applied focus.
