A Multimodal Approach to Image the Human Spinal Cord with Simultaneous Positron Emission Tomography and functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging.
Background. PET-MRI is a novel hybrid imaging technique that combines the metabolic specificity of PET with anatomical, microstructural and functional information available through MRI. Read more

The role of post-translational protein modifications (PTMs) in the regulation of RNP biomolecular condensates in health and motor neuron disease
Background. Eukaryotic cells contain a whole repertoire of microscopically visible, non-membrane-bound RNA-protein complexes - biomolecular condensates that are maintained through a combination of protein-protein, protein-RNA and RNA-RNA interactions. Read more

Investigating the mechanisms of Mitochondrial DNA Repair (Mito-DR)
Applications are invited for a fully-funded three-year PhD to commence in October 2023. The PhD will be based in the Faculty of Science and Health, and will be supervised by. Read more
How does NEDD4-2 support dopaminergic neuron maintenance?
Applications are invited for a three-year PhD studentship available at Professor Edgar Kramers’ group, Peninsula Medical School, University of Plymouth, UK. Read more
Understanding the role of the RNA helicase Upf1 in eukaryotic gene expression
UPF1 is a universally conserved RNA helicase in eukaryotes. Read more
Decoding Speech using Invasive Brain-Computer Interfaces
For individuals who have impaired speech or complete loss of speech as a result of neurodegenerative diseases such as motor neurone disease (MND) or amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), there is an urgent need to develop revolutionary technologies using the latest advances in automatic speech recognition (ASR) and brain signal processing (BSP).

Structure and function of Batten disease proteins
The neuronal ceroid lipofucscinoses are a group of inherited neurodegenerative disorders with primarily childhood onset. The most common form, also known as Batten disease or CLN3 disease, is caused by recessively inherited mutation in the CLN3 gene. Read more
Glycan-based prebiotic approaches
We are currently looking for a PhD candidate to join our dynamic and interdisciplinary team at the Institute for Glycomics, Griffith University Gold Coast campus. Read more
RNA biology and protein synthesis in neurodegeneration (Berlin, Germany)
Motor neuron disorders (MNDs) are a group of neurodegenerative diseases affecting motor neurons, i.e. neurons that control skeletal muscle contraction to produce motion. Read more
Applied optogenetics to study the influence of neuronal activity on neurodegeneration
Optogenetic approaches use genetically encoded, light-inducible proteins that can be expressed in specific tissues and cell types (e.g. Read more
Investigate neuron-glia interactions in MND using advanced molecular and microscopy techniques
This project aims to characterise some of the fundamental interactions between motor neurons and glial cells (microglia, astrocytes, and oligodendrocytes) in the CNS. Read more
Determining novel molecular regulators of necrosis controlling premature cell death
Necrosis, a form of premature cell death, is frequently caused by excessive insults such as trauma, infection and toxins. It has been implicated in many human diseases including cancer, neurodegenerative disorders and inflammatory diseases. Read more
