Two postdoctoral positions at King’s College London
The lab of Adil Khan is looking for postdocs to work on neural circuits of cognition in mice. The lab studies attention, task-switching and other flexible cognitive behaviours and uses a combination of approaches and techniques, including chronic in-vivo 2-photon and 3-photon calcium imaging of excitatory and inhibitory cell classes, targeted holographic optogenetic manipulations, extracellular neuropixel recordings, viral vector based functional circuit mapping, and computational modelling.
- For an informal discussion to find out more about the role please contact Dr Adil Khan .
- Deadline Friday 10th May 2024
The Centre for Integrative Biology of Toulouse recruiting Group Leaders
This is an annual call, which this has a special attention to neuroscience and animal behaviour. All basic research projects in the CRCA research fields, such as experience-dependent plasticity of neural circuits and/or behaviour, mechanisms underlying cognitive processes, mechanisms of individual or collective behaviour, behavioural ecology, are welcome.

PhD Opportunity, University of Dundee
Topic: Investigating Nutrient-Dependent Regulation of Microglia Function and Immune Responses.
This project aims to understand how key metabolic nutrients, glucose and glutamine, regulate microglia responses and function. By understanding how these nutrients are utilised by microglia, will be gain insight into how and why Type 2 Diabetes is a significant risk factor for the development of Alzheimer’s Disease.
- 4-year fully funded PhD in the School of Life Sciences, University of Dundee
- Supervisors: Dr Amy Lloyd and Prof Doreen Cantrell
- Start date: Monday 9th September
- Deadline Friday 7th June 2024
