This PhD project explores how systemic inflammation during sepsis can alter brain function through glial activation and changes in monoamine metabolism. The work is centered on a neurobiological mechanism linking neuroinflammation, the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR), and the UDP-glucuronosyltransferase UGT1A6a in astrocytes. The advertised research builds on preliminary evidence that glial cells can glucuronidate morphine, that LPS increases this activity in vitro and in vivo, and that this eff...

This PhD project investigates the mechanisms, dynamics, and impact of neuromodulation in the olfactory cortex , with a particular focus on cholinergic and GABAergic projections from the basal forebrain . The student will study how these neuromodulatory signals shape olfactory cortical processing during behavior. The research will rely mainly on fiber photometry and optogenetic stimulation in mice performing olfactory behavioral tasks . The project is designed to connect circuit-level activity wi...

Quick Questions

Should I email professors before submitting my PhD application?
Yes. A well-targeted email can significantly improve your chances in many research-based programs.
What should I include in my first email to a professor?
A brief introduction, research interests aligned with the professor’s work, CV, and (if available) publication links.
How long should I wait before following up with a professor?
Typically 7–14 days. One polite follow-up is considered acceptable.
Is it better to send the same email to many professors?
No. Personalized emails that clearly match the professor’s research receive far better response rates.
Do I need a full research proposal when contacting professors?
Usually not initially — a short research summary is sufficient unless the professor specifically requests a full proposal.
