PhD, Postdoc, and MSc Research Assistant Positions in Brain Network Modelling and Neurostimulation

The Brain Dynamics Lab is offering multiple academic positions, including PhD studentships, postdoctoral research fellowships, and MSc-level research assistant roles. The lab operates at the intersection of dynamical systems theory, brain network modelling, and neurostimulation-based rehabilitation, with a mission to advance understanding and treatment of stroke recovery and brain plasticity. Research focuses on restoring network-level brain dynamics through non-invasive electrical stimulation techniques such as tDCS and tACS, viewing recovery as a process of reconfiguring brain networks rather than simple anatomical repair. Positions are available in both Spain (Valencia) and Chile (Valparaiso, Santiago, Talca, Concepción, or other collaborating institutions). The lab welcomes applicants from diverse academic backgrounds, including Physics, Biomedical Engineering, Electronics, Telecom, Control, Informatics Engineering, Applied Mathematics, Computer Science, and Computational Neuroscience. Successful candidates will join an interdisciplinary team working on cutting-edge modelling and real-world neurotechnology applications. Applicants should have a strong academic background in one of the relevant fields and a demonstrated interest in brain dynamics, neurostimulation, or stroke rehabilitation. The application process requires submission of an academic CV and a one-page motivation letter outlining research interests and fit with the Brain Dynamics Lab. Paid positions are available, with compensation according to academic level, though specific funding details are not provided. To apply, candidates should send their application materials to Alejandro Weinstein (Chile: [email protected]) or Wael Deredy (Spain: [email protected]).
