PhD in Mapping the Developing Brain: Linking Structure and Function through Imaging Cardiff University in United Kingdom

PhD opportunity: Neurobiology of Consciousness at the University of Cambridge , Department of Clinical Neurosciences, with Prof Emmanuel Stamatakis . This project asks fundamental questions about neuroscience and consciousness : how subjective experience emerges from neural activity, why consciousness changes under anaesthesia and psychedelic drugs, and how it can persist or disappear in severe brain injury. The research combines neuroimaging and computational neuroscience to study altered state...

Postdoctoral Research Associate at the University of Liverpool , United Kingdom, in child neurodevelopment , behavioural and developmental assessment , neuroimaging , immune profiling , and global child health . This fixed-term post (until October 2028) is part-time (0.7 FTE) and supports major research programmes including Children Growing Up in Liverpool (C-GULL) , Healthy Brains, Healthy Futures (HBHF) , the Liverpool arm of the Wellcome-funded ANXIOMICS programme, and a 0.25 FTE contribution...

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 opportunity in pain neuroscience at Cardiff University This project, titled “Pain as neurobiological surprise: Using human brain imaging and animal studies to advance new concepts in persistent pain” , is hosted by Cardiff University (Cardiff School of Psychology) and supervised by Dr George Tackley and Dr Jennifer Davies. The research explores whether pain can be understood as a form of neurobiological surprise, signalling unexpected threat or damage. The project combines human neuroimaging...

University of Cambridge is recruiting a Postdoctoral Research Associate in auditory cognitive neuroscience at the MRC Cognition and Brain Sciences Unit (CBU), with its transition into CMBI. The project is led by Dr Guangting Mai and focuses on the neural basis of audiovisual speech processing in adult cochlear implant (CI) users . The work examines how audition and vision combine to support everyday speech comprehension, and whether visual speech processing during CI rehabilitation leads to adap...
