Neural Engineering PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships in the UK

We have 16 Neural Engineering PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships in the UK

Precision Medicine DTP - Could disrupted functional connectivity between the hippocampus and the prefrontal cortex be an early marker of vascular cognitive impairment in dementia?

  Research Group: Centre for Discovery Brain Sciences
Additional supervisor. Prof Simon Hanslmayr [University of Glasgow]. Background. The healthy blood-brain barrier (BBB) maintains selective permeability and controls cerebral blood flow to ensure efficient energy supply, prompt waste removal, and balance chemical composition in the interstitial fluid.

PhD studentship - Human Intracortical Brain-Computer Interfaces for Cognition and Control

Award Summary. 100% of home tuition fees paid and an annual stipend (living expenses) of £18,622. . Overview. Human intracortical brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) use features of single unit recordings from implanted electrode arrays to decode intended behaviours of users and output this through external devices. Read more

Continual learning for modelling non-stationary systems

Real-world environments are often non-stationary. Learning systems such as classifiers used for pattern recognition make the stationarity assumption in input data distribution density during training and operation phases. Read more

(BBSRC DTP) Determining the role of microRNA in shaping GABAergic signalling in hippocampal networks

The precise expression of our genes is critical to the very day functioning of our brains. MicroRNAs are a class of noncoding RNAs which modulate the expression patterns of our genes and shape the transcriptomic landscape in the brain. Read more

Single-photon imager design with on-chip feature extraction

In various scientific applications such as neural imaging and single-cell localisation, dynamic regions of the field of view must be captured at high frame rates. Read more

Modulation of neuronal circuits using non-invasive ultrasound stimulation

The research project is based on recent functional studies that conclusively demonstrated the capacity of transcranial low-intensity ultrasound stimulation to reversibly activate or suppress neural activity with high spatial specificity in vivo. Read more

Understanding and optimising motor cortex plasticity

Motor learning is a key skill required at all stages of life but is crucially important for recovery and development. A mechanistic understanding of the biological processes that underpin skill acquisition in healthy and pathological states is an important scientific and clinical goal. Read more

Biomedical Neuroprosthetics

This PhD will perform research into cutting-edge implantable biomedical devices for the brain – also known as neuroprosthetics.  Our implants use an… Read more
