📚 New articles from #EJN - The European Journal of #Neuroscience! This week, we're bringing you fresh insights on equity, diversity, and inclusion (EDI) in #ResearchFunding from @network-alba.bsky.social's interviews with major funders. 🔬 👉 https://loom.ly/0UWhNHA

The ALBA Network is on a roll! 🚀 Just out in the European Journal of Neuroscience: Equitable Research Funding: Strategies, Challenges & the Role of Funding Agencies. #ALBAnetwork #EJN onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

It was great fun to get part of this collaborative review and experimental design focused on predictive processing in visual cortex. Big thanks to @jeromelecoq.bsky.social for coordinating the process! A new & very exciting way to approach open neuroscience with a large collaborative team!

2. Systems Neuroscience PhD position, supervised jointly with Sarah Ruediger @ruedigersarah.bsky.social This is to investigate the differential circuits involved in habitual and goal-directed behaviours. www.findaphd.com/phds/project...

Join us as a postdoc: there is still time to apply. Application deadline April 1st.

Fascinated by brain circuits? Looking for a postdoc position? We are a looking for an experimentalist to join us to investigate the neural substrate underlying goal-directed habitual strategies in visual tasks. Spread the word! Apply by 1st of April - no joke!

After many months of collaboration with the ALBA team, our preprint Equitable Research Funding is now live! bit.ly/4iPIU3S As EDI efforts increasingly face political pushback, we explore how equity is (or isn’t) embedded in funding systems. A snapshot capturing perspectives, approaches & challenges.

The job description can be found here: www.ucl.ac.uk/work-at-ucl/...

We're hiring! Exciting Wellcome Trust-funded postdoc position at UCL. Come join us to study how visual cortex interacts with superior colliculus & basal ganglia to guide behavior. We use Neuropixels, 2-photon imaging & more in freely moving & head-fixed mice. Get in touch! #Neuroscience #Postdoc #UK

Science isn’t just facts and research. It’s a beautifully chaotic endeavor, built for humans, by humans. In times like these, truth, diversity, and collaboration matter more than ever. We believe in equity and making discoveries that stand the test of time. This is our lab philosophy in a nutshell:

🚨 We're looking for an experimentalist to join our team at UCL! 🚨 Whether you’re looking for a postdoc role or want to gain hands-on experience as a research assistant, we’d love to hear from you. If you’re excited about visual circuits, systems neuroscience & mouse behavior, please get in touch!

Time to get ready for the holiday break 😉

Last chance to apply: Application deadline is tomorrow December 18th.

We are pleased to announce the 2025 Paris Spring School in Optical Imaging and Electrophysiological Recording in Neuroscience. AKA the Paris Neuro Course. The course will run 14-27 May 2025. parisneuro.ovh Please forward to anybody or any forums you feel may be interested 👩‍🔬🧠

Rainy weekend ahead? No plans? ☔ Then prep your application to join the Ruediger Lab at UCL in 2025 as a postdoc! Only 5 days left to apply! We’re into circuits, visually guided behavior, Ephys recordings & 2p imaging. Apply before the holiday mulled wine kicks in & all you can write is Ho Ho Ho… 🎄

New Year, New Challenge? About to finish your PhD or recently graduated? Ready to tackle brain circuits & mouse behavior using Neuropixels/2P imaging, and live in London? We’ve got the postdoc position for you. Apply by Dec 18th before it’s gone! 🧠 #PostdocLife #ScienceJobs

The perk of giving a 9am lecture? The campus is empty, the lighting is perfect for scenic photos, and you can wander like a lone adventurer… in search of a cup of coffee.

Recruiting for a new lab is like forming a band. We're not going for pop stardom - more like crafting something unique & a bit off the mainstream. Think Ninja Tune vibes, not Harry Styles or the K-pop recruitment machine (no offence). Join us and help name the band. Sarah and the Visionaries, maybe?

Neuroscientists! A key message from the ALBA Network Please help us spread the word and share this with your network!!! Nominate (self-n allowed) a mid-career neuroscientist (5+ years post-PhD) for the ALBA-Roche Research Prize for Excellence in Neuroscience! 🔎http://loom.ly/_EvQvm4 🗓️20 January 2025

ScienceWrite, a UK scheme for aspiring STEM writers from minoritised backgrounds, is open for 2025 applications! The 3rd year @romatheengineer.bsky.social & I are running this, with support from @royalsociety.bsky.social & I am SO EXCITED Deadline 3rd Jan #SciComm 🧪 www.sciencewrite.co.uk

Want to start your own lab at UCL? Then check out this opportunity. I went through the process a few years ago and can only recommend it! A fantastic place to do science especially because of amazing colleagues and collaborators.

My lab University College London is looking for an experimental postdoc to join our team. Interested in circuits underlying visually guided behavior, chronic #Neuropixel recordings or 2-photon imaging (Benchtop, #Mini2p)? Then check out our lab homepage www.ruedigerlab.com, apply & spread the word
