Funded PhD in Neuroscience: Cerebellar orchestration of social behaviour University of Bristol in United Kingdom

Fully funded PhD opportunity in Neuroscience at the University of Exeter through the GW4 BioMed MRC Doctoral Training Partnership . Project title: How sights become signals for learning This project asks how the brain learns that a previously meaningless visual cue predicts something important, building on recent findings that activity in the superior colliculus is required for dopamine responses to learned visual cues. The student will investigate how visual information gains access to dopamine...

PhD opportunity at Cardiff University in the Cardiff School of Medicine on shared genetic architecture of neuropsychiatric disorders and novel brain biomarkers . The project sits in the area of imaging genetics and aims to improve the biological specificity of brain phenotypes by implementing novel methods for diffusion weighted imaging in a very large cohort, including UK Biobank data, using the unique Connectome scanner at CUBRIC . The research will generate novel MRI metrics closer to brain b...

Postdoc opportunity at Northeastern University London in the Network Science Institute on a new 3-year Leverhulme Trust-funded project: Rethinking Epidemic Models: Integrating Human Behaviour and Psychology . The project develops a new generation of agent-based epidemic models that combine disease transmission with psychologically grounded human behaviour, including social identity, group norms, information trust, and risk perception. The work sits at the intersection of mathematical epidemiolog...

Funded PhD opportunity at Cardiff University in the Cardiff School of Medicine on finding the earliest signs of psychosis in young people at high genetic risk. This project focuses on the developmental origins of psychosis , using unique clinical and population-based datasets to identify early-life factors linked to psychotic symptoms. The research examines how genetic risk interacts with childhood experiences, behaviour, development, and environmental influences to shape mental health outcomes....
