GW4 BioMed2 MRC DTP PhD project: Bridging the gap: combining epigenetics and neuroimaging to shed new light on brain development and mental health in a population-based context
This project is one of a number that are in competition for funding from the GW4 BioMed2 MRC Doctoral Training Partnership which is offering up to 20 studentships for entry in September 2024. Read more
Research opportunities in the Department of Psychology
Our Department of Psychology is a research-intensive department where students are taught by people at the forefront of their fields in well-equipped facilities. Read more
The neurophysiological basis of spontaneous fluctuations in neuroimaging signals
A technique called blood oxygen level dependent (BOLD) functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) can determine levels of different activity in parts of the living human brain and how malfunctions can occur in disease. Read more
Understanding neurovascular coupling and its importance in the interpretation of modern neuroimaging techniques
During the past two decades, blood oxygenation level dependent (BOLD) functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) has become the scientific technique of choice for investigating human brain function in the field of cognitive neuroscience. Read more
GW4 BioMed2 MRC DTP PhD project: Investigating the biological intersection between Alzheimer’s risk genetics and cognitive reserve
This project is one of a number that are in competition for funding from the GW4 BioMed2 MRC Doctoral Training Partnership which is offering up to 20 studentships for entry in September 2024. Read more
Assessing the hemodynamic signal sources of fMRI based spontaneous connectivity maps and how neuronal plasticity such as increased spatial working memory can change these networks
Many psychiatric (e.g. schizophrenia) and neurological diseases are characterised by a disturbance of the connections between different parts of the brain that need to communicate with one another. Read more

Neuroscience of Addiction and Mental Health (Unpacking the core neurocognitive mechanisms of Cannabis Use Disorder)
A PhD scholarship valued at $34,863 p.a. (Australian Dollars) is available to undertake research in standardising cannabis metrics, and mapping and mitigating brain and cognitive dysfunction in substance use and related disorders with entrenched mental health problems. Read more
PET Imaging Data Processing Software Developer (m/f/d)
The Hospital of the University of Munich, Germany, is one of the largest and most competitive university hospitals in Germany and Europe. Read more
Brain Rhythms and Natural Language Processing (NLP)
The main goal of our research group (Neural Oscillations in Multisensory Communication Group at the Centre for Human Brain Health (CHBH), University of Birmingham) is to understand the brain’s information processing in human communication. Read more
Delineating the functional organisation of medial prefrontal cortex
The medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) is implicated in a diverse set of cognitive domains, including executive control, speech and language, memory and social cognition. Read more
Fully funded (and no tuition) PhD program in psychiatric, translational research and basic Neuroscience with the option for a residency track for medical doctors.
We welcome applications starting on August 15, 2023 for a start in fall 2024 (deadline October 31, 2023). The International Max Planck Research School for Translational Psychiatry (IMPRS-TP) is offering PhD positions in molecular, cellular, and systemic psychiatric research to outstanding students. Read more
Using pharmacological agents to investigate the mechanisms of the neuronal vascular coupling
The changes in cerebral blood flow, volume and oxygenation that accompany increases in neural activity form the basis of non-invasive neuroimaging techniques such as blood oxygen level dependent (BOLD) functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) which allow human brain mapping. Read more
