An exciting PhD project in Computational Neuroscience is available for UK/EU candidates in the group of Tobias Reichenbach (
http://www.bg.ic.ac.uk/research/reichenbach/index.html)
at Imperial College London. The student will develop state-of-the art neuronal network models to investigate the effects of complex spatio-temporal neurostimulation on speech processing. The model development and results will be linked with ongoing experiments,
and will pave the way to a novel rehabilitation from neural impairments with speech comprehension.
The PhD position is part of the Center for Neurotechnology (
http://www.imperial.ac.uk/neurotechnology/cdt) at Imperial College London. The successful candidate will join an international
cohort of PhD students working on cutting-edge topics of computational and experimental neuroscience and engineering. To apply please visit the Centre's project page (
http://www.imperial.ac.uk/neurotechnology/cdt/projects/),
access the tab "Projects available for Oct 2017" and select the project "Developing a novel type of neurostimulation to foster speech processing and rehabilitation from aphasia". Deadline is the 31st of January 2017.
