Open PhD Position in Computational & Systems Neuroscience : 'Neuromodulatory control of predictive processing in visual cortical circuits'
⏰ Deadline: January 28, 2026.
Do mice dream of virtual lice?We are recruiting a PhD student to work on neuromodulatory control of predictive processing in mouse vision, co-supervised by Ede Rancz (INMED) and myself.
Project Overview
This CENTURI project combines:
- Computational modeling (spiking and normative models)
- In vivo electrophysiology, imaging, behavior, and optogenetics
- Investigation of how serotonin and noradrenaline shape prediction error signaling during sensory-motor mismatch
Candidate Profile
- Motivated individual with a background in neuroscience or computational sciences
- Experience in either experimental in vivo work or modeling (Python, neural networks)
- Interest in working at the interface of theory and biology
