Postdoctoral Fellow in Systems and Molecular Neuroscience of Cortical Circuits The Francis Crick Institute in United Kingdom

Funded PhD opportunity at The Francis Crick Institute in London, United Kingdom, with Dr Petr Znamenskiy. The project is titled Cell types, connectivity, and computation: reconstructing molecularly annotated connectome of the mouse visual cortex and sits at the intersection of neuroscience, molecular biology, computational biology, and bioengineering. The Znamenskiy lab studies how neural circuits in the neocortex are organised and how their connectivity supports computation. The work focuses on...

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...

PhD opportunity in AMPA receptor structure and function at the Medical Research Council (Cambridge), Laboratory of Molecular Biology in the United Kingdom . This project sits at the intersection of neuroscience , molecular biology , and structural biology , focusing on how AMPA glutamate receptors (AMPA-Rs) and their auxiliary proteins shape excitatory synaptic transmission, plasticity, and information storage in the brain. The lab aims to decode AMPAR signalling complexity from atomic structure...

Funded PhD project in sleep circuitry and neuroscience at the University of Warwick. This project explores why we sleep and how sleep supports brain health, with a particular interest in mechanisms that may protect against dementia. The work sits at the intersection of neuroscience, physiology, and biological sciences. The project will use advanced systems neuroscience approaches, including in vivo and in vitro electrophysiology and fluorescent imaging . It is designed for a curious student who ...

PhD opportunity at The Francis Crick Institute in circuit mechanisms underlying multisensory integration in the superior colliculus . This funded PhD project with Florencia Iacaruso focuses on neuroscience , multisensory integration , superior colliculus , calcium imaging , and connectomics . The project asks how visual, auditory, and somatosensory inputs converge onto distinct neuronal populations and how cortical and subcortical circuits shape multisensory computations. Methods include custom ...
