About this position
PhD opportunity in Human Neuroimaging of Neurodegenerative Diseases at QIMR Berghofer Medical Research Institute in Brisbane, Australia.
This project sits within the Cerebellum & Neurodegeneration Research Group (CNRG) and focuses on hereditary cerebellar ataxias (HCAs), an inherited group of neurodegenerative diseases associated with motor, cognitive, and neuropsychiatric impairment. The research combines advanced MRI neuroimaging, blood-based biomarkers, and digital biomarkers to improve patient characterization and biomarker validation.
Students will work on one or more areas including quantitative MRI measures of myelination, iron metabolism, inflammation, and tissue microstructure; profiling disease expression and progression using blood biomarkers; and statistical modelling plus machine learning to identify disease subgroups and predict progression from clinical, imaging, and biological data.
The post is advertised as a competition funded PhD project for students worldwide. Funding notes mention a funded living allowance scholarship and single cover OSHC insurance.
How to apply: register your interest on the FindAPhD page and wait for the university to respond directly. The page also refers applicants to the QIMR Berghofer International PhD Scholarship Round 2026 for further information.
