Developing Our People
We continually strive to foster and develop a positive and inclusive research culture and work environment. This is overseen by our Equality, Diversity and Inclusion Committee, which has diverse membership from Principal Investigators, Researchers and Professional Services. Meeting regularly throughout the year, the Committee continually reviews the ways in which we work to identify and address potential scope for improvement.
Vacancy: Research Fellow in Cognitive Neuroimaging of Perception
We are now recruiting a Research Fellow to undertake high quality research using cutting-edge human neuroimaging, for example, subfield-specific hippocampal and layer-specific cortical responses (using 7T fMRI) and time-resolved decoding of the neural dynamics underlying visual predictions (using MEG and intracranial recordings).
For some analyses deep neural networks (DNNs) will be used to probe the representational contents of neural signals. Key responsibilities will be to design experiments, recruit and assess study participants, coordinate study logistics, and to collect and analyse behavioural and neuroimaging data for publications and presentation at international conferences and internal meetings.
The post is available from 04 January 2027 and funded by a grant from the European Research Council until 31 December 2029 in the first instance.

Applications invited for a 3-year funded PhD studentship
We seek a highly motivated individual to join us in exploiting the exciting opportunities afforded by 7T fMRI and MEG to study the neural substrates of visual perception.
This is a fully funded 3-year PhD programme, with the starting date anticipated to be 1st February 2027. The studentship is funded by an ERC Consolidator Grant and includes an annual stipend, starting at approximately £26,000 per year. The stipend will be supplemented to compensate for Home tuition fees (approximately £6,400 per year). Overseas tuition fees cannot be covered.
The ERC Grant will also cover all research costs and travel and accommodation for attending conferences and workshops.
Deadline 31st July 2026. Shortlisted candidates will be interviewed in August.
