PhD, Master’s & Postdoc Opportunities in Electrophysiology in Australia

This PhD opportunity focuses on developing multimodal foundation models and agentic artificial intelligence for heart rhythm disorders at Imperial College London. The project will combine electrocardiograms, electronic health records, clinical free text and medical imaging. The research will investigate foundation models, multimodal fusion, large language models and agentic AI, including AI co-scientist approaches that support multiple stages of the research process. The student will work within...

This doctoral project is based in the Bok Lab at Lund University and sits within the Lund Vision Group, a collaborative research environment focused on comparative visual science across the animal kingdom. The group brings together several labs and a broad mix of expertise, with work spanning jellyfishes, insects, crustaceans, squids, and vertebrates. The environment combines optics, electrophysiology, theoretical modelling, microscopy, molecular biology, and behavioural experiments to investiga...

Lund University invites applications for a doctoral project on the evolution of colour vision in marine invertebrates. The PhD researcher will investigate whether the firefly squid, a cephalopod, and the alciopid worm, an annelid, have independently evolved colour vision despite living in deep-water, night-time environments. The project will examine how colour vision influences behaviour and whether these species use visual processing circuits and principles comparable to those found in arthropo...

New Jersey Institute of Technology is seeking a postdoctoral researcher in the lab of Dr. Jorge Golowasch to launch a new research direction at the intersection of plant natural products chemistry and translational neuroscience. The project focuses on the bioactivity of plant-derived natural products against neuroinflammation , including THC-like compounds identified in liverworts. The appointee will help build and carry out a screening pipeline to test candidate compounds in relevant cellular s...

The postdoctoral researcher will join the El Manira laboratory in the Department of Neuroscience at Karolinska Institutet, working on how diversity in neurons and neural circuits within the central nervous system controls the versatility of motor behavior. The project combines advanced experimental approaches to connect neuronal function, circuit dynamics, and behavior. The laboratory uses electrophysiology, optogenetics, imaging, and molecular biology, giving the researcher the opportunity to c...

This doctoral fellowship is hosted by the U.S. Army Medical Research and Development Command at the Walter Reed Army Institute of Research (WRAIR) in Silver Spring, Maryland. The project sits within the Blast Induced Neurotrauma (BINT) Branch and focuses on understanding how repeated exposure to tactical training environments may affect the human brain even when there is no diagnosable injury. The fellow will join a small, experienced research and engineering group that has spent the past decade...

USAMRICD Neuroscience Research Opportunity at the U.S. Army Medical Research Institute of Chemical Defense, located at Aberdeen Proving Ground, Maryland, offers two postgraduate/postdoctoral fellowship placements within a defense-focused research environment. The project is embedded in the institute’s mission as the Department of Defense’s lead laboratory for medical chemical defense research. Fellows will work in either Dr. Lucille Lumley’s neuroscience laboratory or Dr. Michael Adler’s laborat...

The University of Nevada, Reno School of Medicine is seeking a postdoctoral scholar to join a neurovascular imaging laboratory led by the Tran Lab. The project focuses on how neural cells communicate with vascular cells within the neurovascular unit to regulate blood flow and match moment-to-moment metabolic demands in the brain. The successful postdoctoral researcher will carry out independent experiments on neurovascular coupling and cerebral blood flow regulation. The work combines delicate s...

This postdoctoral associate position in the Ni Lab at Virginia Tech focuses on the study of thermosensory systems in insects. The researcher will investigate molecular, cellular, and circuit-level mechanisms across multiple insect species, contributing to a project that spans sensory biology from the molecular scale to neural circuits. The role is designed for an independent and collaborative researcher who can contribute to peer-reviewed publications and external presentations while working clo...
