PhD studentship at the University of Exeter and NIHR Healthtech Research Centre (HRCs) for Brain Health: Using APOE-associated AD resilience to identify potential biomarkers Ref: 5482
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a common form of dementia caused by changes in the brain. AD risk is influenced by genetics, with certain versions of the APOE gene playing a key role. Read more

Developing “intelligent” information technologies using neural markers of multisensory decision-making and learning
The School of Biomedical Sciences invites applications from prospective postgraduate researchers who wish to commence study for a PhD in the academic year 2024/25. Read more
PhD Opportunity - Spinal cord neuronal pathways for pain and itch
'TO APPLY, PLEASE CLICK INSTITUTION WEBSITE'. Project outline: The dorsal horn of the spinal cord plays an important role in processing sensory information that is perceived as pain and itch, but despite its importance we know little about the organisation of neural circuits in this region. Read more
PhD Opportunity - Investigating the effects of expectation on cortical feedback processing using fMRI
'TO APPLY, PLEASE CLICK INSTITUTION WEBSITE'. Project background. Contextual information and prior knowledge facilitate the brain’s processing of our visual world, aiding in the recognition of distorted or obstructed visual inputs. Read more
PhD Opportunity - Does thalamic control of entorhinal cortex contribute to circuit mechanisms of memory consolidation?
'TO APPLY, PLEASE CLICK INSTITUTION WEBSITE'. Project outline. Interactions between prefrontal cortex and brain regions such as hippocampus and entorhinal cortex are essential for processes such as working memory and decision-making. Read more
PhD Opportunity - Building a sense of direction: how do thalamus and cortex interact?
'TO APPLY, PLEASE CLICK INSTITUTION WEBSITE'. Project background: The “sense of direction” is created by the brain in the form of head direction cells, which are neurons that become active when the had faces in a particular direction (a different direction for each cell). Read more
PhD Opportunity - Investigating the prognostic value of spatial immunophenotypes in lung cancer
'TO APPLY, PLEASE CLICK INSTITUTION WEBSITE'. Project description. Tumour microenvironments (TMEs) profoundly influence cancer progression and shape the response to anti-cancer therapy. Read more
