EASTBIO: thalamocortical circuitry contribute to decision makings in cognitive flexibility?
Research Group:
Centre for Discovery Brain Sciences
Cognitive flexibility refers to the ability to switch choices/actions based on changing environmental factors, experiences and expectations, a key executive function that is vital for an individual’s survival. Read more
Novel subsurface Raman microscopy technologies to enable the development of next-generation drug and implant therapies
Start date: September 2024. Duration. 3.5 years. Raman spectroscopy is a powerful label-free analytical technique that measures the molecular composition of tissue by using light to excite molecular vibrations in the sample and generate Raman scattered photons. Read more
EASTBIO: Thalamocortical control of goal-directed movement
Research Group:
Centre for Discovery Brain Sciences
Executing appropriately timed, reproducible actions is essential for interacting with our environment and ultimately survival. Read more
EASTBIO: Neural Circuits of Kinship Behaviour
Research Group:
Centre for Discovery Brain Sciences
The research goals of this PhD project would involve study of the circuits underlying natural social behaviours with a focus on behaviour that is ethologically relevant for the animal. Read more
EASTBIO: Investigating the interaction between microglia, inflammation and neuronal health in iPSC-organoid models of tauopathy
Research Group:
Centre for Discovery Brain Sciences
Primary tauopathies, such as Frontotemporal dementia (FTD) and progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) are age-related disorders characterised by both neuronal and glial accumulation of tau protein, and subsequent synaptic dysfunction and death. Read more
EASTBIO: Employing organoids to investigate the role of PAX6 in neural connectivity during human forebrain development
Research Group:
Centre for Discovery Brain Sciences
The human brain is a complex structure comprised of billions of neurons which must precisely connect to each other forming functional neural circuits to enable normal brain functions. Read more
Funded PhD - Understanding neuronal dysfunction in Tuberous Sclerosis
Tuberous Sclerosis (TS) is an autosomal dominant genetic disorder characterised by the formation of benign tumours and neurological symptoms, including epilepsy, cognitive disability and autism. Read more
Characterisation of placental drug disposition and fetal drug exposure using mechanistic in silico models
Background. Many women require at least one medication during pregnancy for the management of pre-existing or newly emerging medical conditions. Read more
AI-Based Diagnostics and Prognostics Digital Twin to Support Predictive Maintenance of Gas Turbine Engines PhD
Current gas turbine engines use hydrocarbon fuels, such as kerosene, diesel and natural gas which inevitably produce CO2 and NOx emissions. Read more
