An MRC-funded postdoctoral fellowship is currently available to work on octopus connectomics in our lab. Applications close on 12 April 2026, apply here if you are interested!
We also very much encourage applicants to the MRC Career Returner Fellowship (for scientists returning from a career break) or the Rising Talent Fellowship (for Black heritage scientists) to apply to our lab. Applications open in April 2026; if you are interested in any of our projects please feel free to email if you have questions or want to discuss ideas.
