Supervisor: Profs Tim Ledgeway and Paul McGraw School: Psychology Description: Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is a popular method for studying the functional properties, connectivity and chronometry of brain regions associated with vision. However comparatively little is known about the precise mechanisms by which TMS influences on-going visual...
Supervisors: Martin Schürmann, Andrew Reid, Christopher Madan (School of Psychology) Description: The PhD project will study how the brain/cognition relationship changes across the lifespan. Using an open data archive containing neuroimaging data from 600+ participants, the project will combine information obtained with multiple brain imaging modalities:...
Supervisor: Mark Humphries (School of Psychology) Co-supervisor: Ruediger Thul (School of Mathematics) Description: A wealth of systems can be described by weighted networks, in which nodes represent parts of the system and links represent interactions between nodes. Crucially, the strength of interaction is represented by the weight...
Supervisor: Stephen Coombes School of Mathematical Sciences Description: A network of globally coupled quadratic integrate-and-fire neurons with conductance based synapses has recently been shown to admit to an exact mean field description using the Ott-Antonsen (OA) ansatz [1,2]. The resulting neuronal population model is ideally suited as...
Supervisor: Mark Humphries School of Psychology Description: The wiring between neurons, the connectome, defines their activity. So in order to understand the activity of neurons we record from, we want to know the wiring between them. But current technology does not allow the simultaneous recording and tracing...
Supervisor: Mark Humphries School of Psychology Description: Psychology and neuroscience experiments on rule-learning typically take the form of discrete trials in which a participant is asked to make a choice between two or more alternatives. A correct choice elicits a reward -- in some experiments the reward delivery...
Supervisor: Alan Johnston (School of Psychology) Co-supervisor: Neil Roach (School of Psychology) Description: The aim of this project will be to explore the stage of motion processing in which local estimates of direction and speed of motion are combined to represent global motion patterns. This is thought to...
Supervisor: Dr Nikos Gekas Co-supervisor: School: Psychology Description: A growing body of work suggests that the brain could be using a probabilistic strategy to infer the true state of the environment from noisy and incomplete data. This is referred to as the ‘Bayesian coding hypothesis’. In that...
Supervisor: Matias J. Ison (School of Psychology) Co-supervisor: Stephen Coombes (School of Mathematical Sciences) Description: This project combines computational modelling with machine learning and state-of-the-art analyses techniques. Our recent experimental work with single neuron recordings from epilepsy patients implanted with depth electrodes for clinical reasons showed that individual neurons...
