The APS plasma-physics meeting is held jointly with the Gaseous Electronics Conference. Its programme combines invited research reviews, contributed presentations, posters and mini-conferences across magnetic fusion, high-energy-density and laser-plasma physics, astrophysical plasmas and low-temperature plasma science. Experimental measurements, theory and computation address plasma stability,…
This interdisciplinary conference connects molecular mechanisms and protein machinery with organelles, cellular organisation and tissue assembly. Researchers at all career stages explore how imaging, structural biology and mechanobiology connect biological scales, alongside neural stem cells, brain plasticity, glial biology and neuroinflammation. The 4 November programme starts with registration…
Subcallosal cingulate stimulation for resistant depression needs objective biomarkers beyond stress-sensitive clinical ratings. Sankaraleengam Alagapan uses variational autoencoders to address high-dimensional longitudinal local-field potentials and unreliable labels. Supervised models track depressive states; a generative causal explainer identifies interpretable, low-dimensional features,…

Uri Cohen examines how stable memories can emerge in recurrent networks without imposing specially engineered dynamics such as a Lyapunov gradient. The analysis concerns discrete fixed points in networks with graded activity and noise. Random matrix methods characterize both the bulk and outlier eigenvalues of the local Jacobians. This yields a stability threshold: either all fixed points are…
Lamont-Doherty offers 24-month research appointments spanning solid-Earth processes, ocean and atmospheric systems, climate, cryospheric dynamics, paleoclimate, biogeoscience and environmental contamination. Applicants propose an original Earth-science project and identify potential mentors; machine-learning backgrounds are welcome. A forest-ecology option includes work at Black Rock Forest. The…
Support NSW organisations recruiting outstanding health and medical research leaders from overseas. Proposals should establish a strategically important research programme with a clear route to translation. Cardiovascular research and projects exclusively focused on cancer are outside this call.
Four-year fellowships support mid-career researchers undertaking basic and applied research of national and international significance. Support combines a salary at one of three levels with up to AUD 60,000 annually for project costs. Applications close on 6 November 2026. Institutional deadlines may be earlier.
Investigate foundation models for safe, socially aware human–robot interaction in the HUCEBOT team. The ENACT-funded project combines vision-language and vision-language-action models with motion planning and control, addressing hallucinations, long-horizon behavior, human communication and environmental adaptability. Socially aware robot navigation is the application domain. Applicants need a…
PhD project in Prof. Karin Roelofs's Affective Neuroscience group, funded by the ERC Advanced Grant HEART2ADAPT, which studies how the body's autonomic stress state shapes approach–avoidance decisions under threat. The project tests causal mechanisms with transcranial ultrasound stimulation (TUS), including offline TUS and the development of MR-compatible online TUS applied to the amygdala,…
Fully funded four-year PhD programme in systems neuroscience at the Sainsbury Wellcome Centre in central London. The first year centres on courses (Boot Camp, Systems and Theoretical Neuroscience, Experimental Neuroscience) and lab rotations, with intensive training in imaging, physiology, molecular and behavioural methods shared with Gatsby Computational Neuroscience Unit students; students…
