A PhD position is available at the Lyon Neuroscience Research Centre (CRNL) in Lyon (France) in the group of Giulio Bondanelli (https://sites.google.com/view/giuliobondanelli). The group develops dynamical system and statistical models to constrain circuit models of brain function from multimodal neural data at the cellular level (recordings, connectome data, intervention), with the goal of understanding how neural computations arise from collective network interactions. We are looking for candidates with a strong quantitative background and solid programming skills, as well as an interest in exploring neuroscientific questions. Experience with the analysis of neural data is a plus. The successful applicant will be based at the Lyon Neuroscience Research Centre (https://www.crnl.fr/en?language=en; Université Claude Bernard Lyon 1), within an international and highly dynamic environment situated on the Campus Le Vinatier in Lyon. The centre brings together groups with diverse experimental and computational approaches spanning multiple scales of neuroscience. The position will start between September and December 2026, although the precise starting date is flexible. The contract will have a duration of 3 years. Candidates should send a CV and a brief statement of interest (up to 1 page) to giulio.bondanelli@univ-lyon1.fr *before June 15th, 2026*. -- Giulio Bondanelli Centre de Recherche en Neurosciences de Lyon, Université Claude Bernard Lyon 1 giulio.bondanelli@univ-lyon1.fr
