PhD Stipend at the Center for Neuroplasticity and Pain (CNAP)
Are you enthusiastic about basic human pain research? The Center for Neuroplasticity and Pain (CNAP) at Aalborg University is recruiting a PhD fellow, to start 15 September 2024 or soon hereafter. The PhD stipend is available within the doctoral programme "Biomedical Engineering and Neuroscience" at the Department of Health Science and Technology.
Jobbeskrivelse
Who are we?
We strive to identify and modulate key features of human pain neuroplasticity and its relevance for persistent pain in humans.
CNAP is a research Center of Excellence inaugurated by the Danish National Research Foundation at Aalborg University, ). CNAP applies a basic research approach where new advanced biomedical provocation and probing platforms are being discovered and applied to study novel aspects of the human pain neuroplasticity. The ambition of CNAP is to identify and modulate key features of human pain neuroplasticity through a systematic approach, including provoking, probing and modulation of the dynamic neuroplastic properties of the pain system. We believe that this approach over time will foster new fundamental discoveries and change the state of the art and offer novel ways for pain treatment. Our world class lab facilities enable advanced quantitative sensory/pain testing, application of advanced neurophysiological techniques(e.g. EEG, TMS, TMS-EEG, rTMS, HD-tDCS), bio-medical techniques(e.g. linked with epigenetics and general biomarkers), as well as research based on animal models(e.g. rodents and pigs).
CNAP is a dynamic and international research environment: approximately 60% of our staff is international, with an almost 50-50% gender balance. Our working language is English, and you will also be writing your thesis in English. We are highly interdisciplinary and include experts within e.g. biomedical engineering, neuropsychology, pharmacology, biophysics, and medicine with industrial specialisation, and medicine. You will thus be joining an inspiring, enriching, and productive cross-disciplinary research centre including staff with internationally recognized track records.
CNAP is affiliated to the Department of Health Science and Technology at the Faculty of Medicine, which does multidisciplinary research and teaching in health science and technology(e.g. medicine and biomedical engineering). The strategic focus of the department is to be leading within digital health and being well-known for medical doctors and engineers collaboratively developing solutions together. The department has more than 250 employees and is responsible for more than 1700 students.
Working at CNAP
CNAP offers a PhD scholarship for exploring neuroplasticity and pain. You will be involved in our frontline research to identify novel mechanisms involved in the dynamics of pain neuroplasticity, and our efforts to advance the understandings of this topic within the academic world and beyond. Specifically, your tasks will be to:
- Conduct research under the supervision of senior CNAP staff members.
• Contribute to the research endeavourBrain Neuro-Adaptability to )and study cortical biomarkers(e.g. EEG, transcranial magnetic stimulation, transcranial direct current stimulation) in relation to biomarkers of pain sensitivity.
• Write up research results in the form of journal articles and book chapters.
• Participate in and co-arrange national and international research conferences and be exposed to external research environments as e.g. a visiting researcher.
• Disseminate the results of your research to the public.
• Follow PhD training courses.
• Participate in the day-to-day life of the Center(e.g. research meetings, Round Table meetings, seminars, social activities).
• Develop a solid background in pain neuroscience that will allow you to foster a curious and critical sense to analyse and interpret scientific information.
AAU wishes to reflect the diversity of society and welcomes applications from all qualified candidates regardless of personal background or belief.
