The role

Personalised neurostimulation for Parkinson's disease

We are looking for a postdoctoral researcher to join our mission to transform the development of neurostimulation interventions for Parkinson’s disease and related movement disorders.

The aim of our MRC funded project is to design personalized neurostimulation protocols for Parkinson’s patients by capitalizing on the observation that their symptoms greatly improve immediately after engaging in intense physical exercise. We will record patients’ neural activity pre- and post-exercise to identify functional connectivity patterns associated with improved movement and cognitive control. We will then develop neurostimulation strategies to facilitate the patterns and test if they can indeed improve patients mobility and cognitive task performance.
