  How do N-Src kinases specify neuronal identity?
University of York Department of Biology
  Dr G Evans, Dr S Chawla
Application Deadline: 7 January 2019
The challenges of the developing human brain include co-ordinating the birth. and migration of 100 billion neurons and the formation of their 1000 trillion.

  Early stage researcher/PhD position in a European Training Network project - the dynamics of visual perception and its neuronal correlates
Bilkent University Psychology
  Prof H Boyaci
Applications accepted all year round
The project is part of a European Training Network (ETN) with altogether 11 projects on cutting-edge, multidisciplinary research in visual, visual-haptic perception, their neuronal correlates and computer rendering.

  Dynamics of a minimal neuronal network with multisynaptic dendrites
University of Leicester Department of Neuroscience, Psychology and Behaviour
  Dr J Liu, Dr V Marra
Application Deadline: 6 January 2019
Neurons are morphologically very complex cells with large arborisations that can extend for several millimetres. Communication between neurons relies on action potential driven release of neurotransmitter at specialised sites called synapses.

  Regulation of neuronal excitability and synaptic transmission by metabolic demand in health and disease
University of Leicester Department of Neuroscience, Psychology and Behaviour
  Prof I D Forsythe, Dr J Steinert
Application Deadline: 6 January 2019
The brain uses vast metabolic resources to maintain electrical excitability and to integrate sensory information (Harris et al., 2012).

  Multilevel modelling of neuronal function: combining metabotropic pathways and membrane excitability in-silico.
University of Reading School of Pharmacy
  Dr F Tamagnini, Dr M Tindall
Application Deadline: 23 February 2019
Neurons work as information relays. They integrate information received from the environment at the subcellular scale, generating an appropriate electrophysiological response.

  Understanding the effects of brain disease on what functional brain imaging signals are telling us about neuronal activity
University of Sheffield Department of Psychology
  Dr C Martin
Applications accepted all year round
Functional brain imaging methods such as functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) have already revolutionized how we can study the processes and functioning of the healthy human brain and are making an increasing impact on our understanding on what goes wrong in disease of the brain.

  Sensing and Imaging Synaptic Vesicle Trafficking and Neurotransmitter Release - A Novel Opto-Synaptic Interface
University of Exeter College of Engineering, Mathematics and Physical Sciences
  Prof F Vollmer
Application Deadline: 31 January 2019
The University of Exeter (UoE) and Nanyang Technological University (NTU), Singapore are offering six fully funded postgraduate studentships to undertake collaborative research projects at the two institutions, leading to PhD degrees (split-site) to be conferred either by the UoE or NTU.

  Fractional order modelling of neurons
University of Reading School of Biological Sciences
  Dr S Hadjiloucas, Dr E Delivopoulos
Applications accepted all year round
Fractional order calculus (integro-differential equations that are of non-integral order) is an emerging methodology with wide applications across all areas of Physics and Engineering.

Type/Funding
  Neuromorphic Nanophotonic Systems for Artificial Intelligence
University of Strathclyde Institute of Photonics
  Dr A Hurtado, Dr M Strain
Application Deadline: 15 February 2019
Start date. March 2019. Duration. 3 yrs. Background. Neuromorphic Photonics is an emerging discipline focusing on the development of light-enabled technologies inspired by the powerful computational capabilities of the brain for novel paradigms in information processing beyond traditional digital systems.

  Investigating neuronal patterning and development
Kingston University Faculty of Science, Engineering and Computing
  Dr F Mackenzie, Prof A Walker, Dr N Hill
Applications accepted all year round
This 3-year PhD will study molecular and cellular mechanisms of neuronal patterning and neural development using ex vivo/in vitro methods (mouse/human tissue/cells) and/or in vivo methods (invertebrates).
