Independent research fellows

The Humphries Lab has a great track record of hosting independent research fellows studying the computations of neural populations. We welcome enquiries from candidates who would like to apply for an independent research fellowship with our support. Please send a rough proposal, idea of targeted funding bodies, and CV to Mark.

Suitable fellowship schemes are available from a range of UK funders. The University of Nottingham also offers its own tenure-track research fellowships, for which we’re happy to discuss support.

UK universities recruit most PhD students through their PhD programs. The University of Nottingham has a range of PhD programs. Any projects we have available through these PhD programs will appear above under Open positions. UK PhDs start in October; programs open for applications anytime between the preceding December and May - check the specific program’s calls for deadlines.

All program-linked PhD studentships in the UK are advertised on FindAPhD.com.

Internships

We typically host 1-2 pre-doctoral internships a year, either at Nottingham or remotely.
