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...
