About this position

PhD opportunity in Computational Neuroscience at Jülich Research Center in Germany.

The project is in the Institute for Advanced Simulation (IAS-6, Computational and Systems Neuroscience) and focuses on developing multi-area models of the mouse thalamocortical visual system. The research aims to improve the biological realism of a functional model of the mouse visual cortex and to better understand relationships between cortical structure, dynamics, and function.

The post mentions collaboration with PIs and postdocs in the USA and Germany, and it is specifically described as a PhD opportunity for US candidates, contingent on a successful grant application.

Application materials: CV, copies of Bachelor’s and Master’s transcripts, and a short motivation letter.

How to apply: Email the materials to Prof. Sacha van Albada at [email protected] by 2026-08-10.

Keywords: Computational Neuroscience, Neuroscience, biological modeling, mouse visual cortex, thalamocortical system, multi-area models.

Funding details

Full funding including tuition fees and living expenses is available for this position. The scholarship covers all educational costs and provides a monthly stipend.

How to apply

Please submit your application including a cover letter, CV, academic transcripts, and contact information for two references. Applications should be sent via the online portal before the deadline.
