About us


The mission of the Department of Clinical and Experimental Epilepsy is to transform the lives of people living with epilepsy for the better by identifying, understanding, and correcting or preventing the underlying mechanisms leading to the epilepsies and associated comorbidities in each individual person.

Our vision is to build upon the excellence and breadth of our research, seamlessly integrating basic and clinical science.


About the role


We have an exciting opportunity for a Research Fellow to join the Lignani Research Group, based in the department, and use in vivo Miniscope recordings in mouse models of neurological diseases.

This project is central to an ERC (UKRI Frontier Research Guarantee)-funded programme of research aimed at understanding brain pathology and therapies.

The role is available from September 2024 and funded by the ERC for three years in the first instance.

Informal enquiries regarding the role can be addressed to Professor Gabriele Lignani.


About you
You will hold a PhD in Neuroscience or a related field.

You should have hands-on experience with in vivo electrophysiology, stereotaxic surgery, and electrode implantation, as well as experience working with rodents, colony management, and surgery.


In addition, you will have experience with computational modelling of brain networks, in vivo neuronal activity imaging (Miniscope), and neurological disease modelling.

Excellent project management skills, advanced IT proficiency, and outstanding oral and written communication skills are also essential.


What we offer

Our commitment to Equality, Diversity and Inclusion
