Applications are invited from both Home students and International students to join a multidisciplinary team of researchers studying the links between behaviour and brain circuit dynamics in animal models of Parkinson’s. This studentship is available from the start of academic year 2027/28, is for 4 years, and will be co-supervised by Professor Peter Magill, Professor Andrew Sharott, Dr Juan Gallego and Dr Helen Collins at the Medical Research Council Centre of Research Excellence in Restorative Neural Dynamics.

Applications are invited from both Home students and International students to join a multidisciplinary team of researchers studying the potential for closed-loop auditory stimulation during sleep to be used to improve memory consolidation following stroke. This studentship is available from the start of academic year 2027/28, is for 4 years, and will be co-supervised by Dr Melanie Fleming, Professor Andrew Sharott, and Professor Andrew Jackson at the MRC Centre of Research Excellence in Restorative Neural Dynamics.

Applications are invited from both Home students and International students to join a multidisciplinary team of researchers studying phase-locked deep brain stimulation to improve movement and sleep in people with Parkinson’s disease. This studentship is available from the start of academic year 2027/28, is for 4 years, and will be co-supervised by Professor Huiling Tan, Dr Shenghong He, and Professor Andrew Sharott at the MRC Centre of Research Excellence in Restorative Neural Dynamics.

Applications are invited from both Home students and International students to join a multidisciplinary team of researchers studying the synchronisation of brain activity to deep brain stimulation in Parkinson’s disease. This studentship is available from the start of academic year 2027/28, is for 4 years, and will be co-supervised by Dr Benoit Duchet and Professor Huiling Tan at the MRC Centre of Research Excellence in Restorative Neural Dynamics.

Applications are invited from both Home students and International students to join a multidisciplinary team of researchers studying how neural, movement and behavioural signals can be used to personalise adaptive deep brain stimulation (DBS) for Parkinson’s disease. This studentship is available from the start of academic year 2027/28, is for 4 years, and will be co-supervised by Dr. Ashwini Oswal, Professor Tim Denison, Dr. Hayriye Cagnan, and Dr. Bahman Abdi-Sargezeh at the MRC Centre of Research Excellence in Restorative Neural Dynamics.
