Neurobiology Queen's University Belfast in United Kingdom

PhD opportunity in Neuroscience, Molecular Biology, and Behavioural Biology at the Medical Research Council Laboratory of Molecular Biology (Cambridge, United Kingdom). This project, supervised by Dr W Schafer, focuses on neuropeptide networks and how “wireless” neuronal communication shapes behaviour. The first part uses C. elegans to study neuropeptide signaling in feeding circuits, including how peptides and receptors related to human hypothalamic appetite pathways regulate feeding and starva...

Funded PhD opportunity at The Francis Crick Institute in London, United Kingdom. This 2027 Crick PhD project with Dr Jonny Kohl focuses on the function and flexibility of neural circuits for instinctive behaviours , with a strong emphasis on neuroscience , behavioural biology , and state-dependent brain plasticity. The project asks how physiological states such as reproductive, metabolic, and hormonal conditions shape information processing in the brain and alter instinctive behaviours including...

PhD opportunity in Neuroscience, Molecular Biology, and Behavioural Biology at the Medical Research Council (Cambridge), Laboratory of Molecular Biology. This project, supervised by Dr Marco Tripodi, investigates how the brain transforms perception into action. The research focuses on neural circuits linking the motor cortex, thalamus, and superior colliculus, with particular interest in genetically defined Pitx2 neurons and their role in sensorimotor transformation, intention, movement preparat...

PhD opportunity in neuroscience , molecular biology , and behavioural biology at the Medical Research Council Laboratory of Molecular Biology in Cambridge, United Kingdom . The project, supervised by Dr Marta Zlatic , focuses on the circuit basis of learning and action selection in the tractable Drosophila larva . The research aims to uncover how distributed brain circuits implement memory formation and action choice using a synaptic-resolution connectome, genetic tools, and functional experimen...

The Sciolino Lab in the Department of Physiology and Neurobiology , College of Liberal Arts & Sciences at the University of Connecticut (Storrs Campus, United States) is recruiting a Postdoctoral Research Associate in behavioral neuroscience and systems neuroscience . This NIH-funded position focuses on how neuromodulatory systems interact with central taste processing regions to regulate behavior. The lab studies how neuromodulatory systems—especially norepinephrine —shape neural circuits under...
