Postdoctoral Research Associate in Cerebrovascular Imaging and Dementia Research at The University of Manchester The University of Manchester in United Kingdom

PhD opportunity at the University of Cambridge in the Department of Clinical Neurosciences on Fluid Biomarkers of Inflammation in Frontotemporal Dementia . This project focuses on neuroscience , neurology , neuroinflammation , frontotemporal dementia , and related neurodegenerative disorders, with additional relevance to Alzheimer’s disease , biomarkers , proteomics , neuroimaging , and clinical data analysis. The research aims to characterise inflammation signatures in blood and CSF from people...

Cardiff University is advertising a funded PhD project on unravelling the physiological drivers of sleep-dependent glymphatic flow in Alzheimer’s disease using advanced MRI . The project sits in the Cardiff School of Physics and Astronomy and is supervised by Prof Kevin Murphy . The research is part of the SleepBoost study, a £4.3m multi-centre investigation into how improving slow-wave sleep may enhance waste clearance in the brain and potentially slow or reverse Alzheimer’s disease pathology. ...

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...

PhD opportunity at the University of Cambridge in parallel-transmit 7T MRI (pTx-7T-MRI) for epilepsy and whole-brain sub-millimetre imaging. The Department of Clinical Neurosciences is advertising a competition-funded PhD project supervised by Prof C Rodgers . The project builds on recent clinical work showing that pTx-7T-MRI can reveal abnormalities missed by standard hospital 3T MRI and PET scans, improving clinical management for patients with epilepsy. Research themes include MRI pulse seque...

Two postdoctoral fellow positions are available in neurobiology at the MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology with Dr Michel Goedert . The project focuses on the mechanisms underlying the assembly of alpha-synuclein into the amyloid filaments found in Lewy body diseases and multiple system atrophy in human brains. These are three-year positions funded by an ASAP (Aligning Science Across Parkinson's) grant. The collaboration includes researchers at MRC-LMB , University College London , University of...
