PhD in Dementia Biomarkers, PET Imaging, and Molecular Pathology Amsterdam UMC in Netherlands

PhD opening in behavioural neurobiology at the University of Groningen , embedded in the Memory, Sleep, and Hormones (MeSH) lab and the Neurobiology group at GELIFES. The project focuses on the neurobiology of menopause , especially the short- and long-term consequences of estradiol deprivation in the aging female brain. The PhD candidate will work with middle- to older-aged female rats and use experimental models of menopause, including ovarian removal, suppression of non-ovarian estradiol sour...

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...

PhD candidate opportunity at the University of Amsterdam (Faculty of Science, Swammerdam Institute for Life Sciences) in neuroscience , with a strong focus on aging biology , Alzheimer’s disease , brain networks , and neurovascular dysfunction . The project asks how loss of vascular clearance mechanisms, especially endothelial LRP1, disrupts brain-wide circuits involving the thalamus, cortex, hippocampus, and cerebellum. You will test whether impaired vascular clearance leads to altered coherenc...

Maastricht University is advertising a PhD position on reducing avoidance by altering threat imagery in panic disorder . The project sits at the intersection of psychology , neuroscience , clinical psychology , anxiety disorders , mental imagery , and experimental psychopathology . You will join a highly collaborative team across the Faculty of Psychology and Neuroscience (Maastricht), Mondriaan Mental Health Center, and Utrecht University, with additional expertise from Oxford University and KU...

PhD position in Neuroscience at the University of Groningen (Groningen, Netherlands) focused on understanding how patterns of neural activity give rise to behavior. The project combines miniaturized calcium imaging , RFID tracking , multi-camera recordings, deep-learning-based behavioral analysis, computational analysis of neural population activity, stereotaxic surgery, pharmacological manipulations, and histology. You will study freely behaving mice across environments ranging from standardize...
