INVESTIGATING AND MODELLING BRAIN DYNAMICS ACROSS SPECIES
Deadline for Application: 12.00 noon (UK time), Friday 6th November 2026. Please note: this deadline is before the University's December deadline.
Studentship Code: 27PSYCH02WEB
We are inviting applications for a PhD studentship to work with Dr. Andrea Luppi's research group starting in October 2027. The focus of the DPhil, refined with the candidate, centres on Dr Luppi's ERC Starting Grant, mapping causal interventions from anatomy to function across species. You will analyse brain dynamics from fMRI datasets of targeted brain perturbations, such as pharmacology (anaesthetics, psychedelics) or brain stimulation, primarily in macaques, emphasising cross-species comparison and whole-brain computational modelling.
