Research Studentship
Applications are invited from students with a suitable qualification in a germane life science (e.g., psychology, zoology or physiology) for a four-year studentship funded jointly by the Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council and the School of Psychology entitled “Medial-Temporal Lobe’s Role in Stimulus Representation: Fractionation of Recognition Memory”.
The medial-temporal lobe has a well-documented yet incompletely understood role in memory. The project will test contemporary theories that suppose the medial temporal lobe is involved in creating detailed and robust representations of stimulus events.
This project will be jointly supervised by Dr Jasper Robinson and Dr Charlotte Bonardi.
The successful student will be registered for a PhD (MPhil in the first instance) and affiliated with the School of Psychology.
This studentship is available for a period of four years from October 2007 and provides a postgraduate stipend of £12,600 per annum. Due to funding restrictions, only EU residents are eligible for this award, and the award will be conditional on the attainment of a 2:i degree or higher. Further details of conditions of the award are available at http://www.bbsrc.ac.uk/funding/training/dtg.html.
Informal enquiries may be addressed to Dr J Robinson, Email: Jasper.Robinson@Nottingham.ac.uk.
Applications, with a detailed CV and the names and addresses of two academic referees, should be sent to Dr J Robinson, School of Psychology, The University of Nottingham, University Park, Nottingham, NG7 2RD. Email: Jasper.Robinson@Nottingham.ac.uk.
