Call for PhD scholarship - Social Coding in Mouse Cortex with Longitudinal Imaging and Computational Modeling
by Lorenzo Fontolan March 27, 2025

March 27, 2025

Dear colleagues, We are pleased to announce the opening of a PhD position at INMED (Aix-Marseille University) through the SCHADOC program, focused on the neural coding of social interactions and memory in the cortex of behaving mice. The project will investigate how social behaviors essential for cooperation, mating, and group dynamics are encoded in the brain, and how these processes are disrupted in neurodevelopmental disorders such as autism. ————— Project Overview This project uses longitudinal calcium imaging and population-level data analysis to study how cortical circuits encode social interactions in mice. Recordings from mPFC and S1 in wild-type and Neurod2 KO mice will be used to extract neural representations of social memory. The candidate will develop and apply computational models of neural dynamics and representational geometry to uncover how these codes evolve over time and are disrupted in social amnesia. Key features • Combination of systems neuroscience, data analysis, and computational modeling • High-density, longitudinal calcium imaging in freely behaving animals • Strong quantitative and analytical component • Integration in an international and interdisciplinary research environment Supervision • Supervisor: Dr. Lorenzo Fontolan, INMED (Aix-Marseille University) • Co-supervisor: Dr. Antoine de Chevigny, INMED (Aix-Marseille University) • Consultant: Leo Guignard, IBDM (Aix-Marseille University) The ideal candidate will have a strong background in neuroscience, physics, engineering, or applied mathematics, with experience or interest in data analysis, computational neuroscience, and systems-level brain function. ————— More information here: https://schadoc.univ-amu.fr/en/call-candidates/call-candidates/health-well-… https://schadoc.univ-amu.fr/en/call-candidates/call-candidates/health-well-… We would appreciate it if you could circulate this opportunity to interested students or relevant mailing lists.

Fwd: [CNE-Announce:] GU-TUM Neuroengineering summer school "Neuroengineering for Return to Function" (application deadline 4/8/2025)
by Ella Striem-Amit March 25, 2025

March 25, 2025

(Apologies for cross-posting) ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Center for Neuroengineering <neuroengineering(a)georgetown.edu> Date: Wed, Mar 19, 2025 at 9:34 AM Subject: [CNE-Announce:] GU-TUM Neuroengineering summer school "Neuroengineering for Return to Function" (application deadline 4/8/2025) To: <cne-announce(a)georgetown.edu> *3rd annual GU-TUM Neuroengineering Summer School <https://cne.georgetown.edu/2025-summer-school/>* *Georgetown University* *Washington, DC* *June 16-20, 2025* *Application deadline: April 8, 2025* The Georgetown-TUM Summer Schools in Neuroengineering started in 2023 with the rollout of the Center for Neuroengineering (CNE) <https://cne.georgetown.edu/> and the first summer school at Georgetown, followed by the “TUM-GU Summer School in Neuroengineering” at the Technical University of Munich, Germany in 2024. This year’s edition is back at Georgetown University in Washington, DC. The theme is “Neuroengineering for Restoration to Function”, highlighting ways in which neuroengineering approaches can aid in restoring function after injury- or disease-related impairment. The goal of neuroengineering is to apply engineering principles and techniques to understand, repair, replace, and enhance the nervous system. The interdisciplinary nature of the field requires a close collaboration between neuroscientists (spanning approaches from cellular to cognitive) and engineers (including biomedical, computer science, electrical, mechanical…), and the goal of the summer school is to bring together students (from advanced undergraduate to graduate), postdocs and faculty from all these areas. After the great response to the pre-summer school workshops in Munich last year, this summer school for the first time includes a number of workshops. Summer school participants will work in small groups and gain hands-on experience in solving neuroengineering-related problems. In addition, as in previous years, there will be a range of talks from speakers in the CNE alliance (GU, TUM, Lawrence Livermore National Labs) and other institutions, discussion panels (on “the future of neuroengineering in the clinic” and “neuroethics”), as well as social activities. Get ready for an exciting week! Applications using the *online form* <https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfUUkBh8DYGgEHNMc6iyjgZBap8io6WDtc…> are due April 8. Participation fees are $50 and scholarships can be provided. Breakfasts and lunches are included. Participants are responsible for travel to DC as well as housing (note that we have reserved housing in on-campus dorms). If you have questions about the summer school, please contact *neuroengineering(a)georgetown.edu* <neuroengineering(a)georgetown.edu>.
