Open Positions will begin to be posted about 6 weeks before each deadline.
Candidates should keep in mind to indicate “hiring labs” when filling in the 3-5 labs in which they are interested in the on-line application.
The PhD program will communicate to you by mid-May if your application is selected or not for an invitation to the Hiring Days – June 12th-14th 2024. We would like to encourage you to apply to the EPFL “Neuroscience” PhD program!
Gerstner Laboratory of Computational Neuroscience reviews applications for each deadline in view of hiring a PhD student with a strong theory background. Please apply directly to the EDNE program with your full application package. No need to pre-contact the lab, since decisions are only made once all the application material has arrived through the official channel.
Herzog Laboratory of Human Psychophysics has openings for students with an interest in human vision or schizophrenia research with a psychophysics, imaging (fMRI, EEG, TMS) or modelling background. Please do not pre-contact the lab.
Petersen Laboratory of of Sensory Processing encourages highly motivated students with a strong background in neuroscience, electrophysiology, imaging, data analysis or computational modelling to apply for PhD positions in the fields of reward-based learning and context-dependent sensory processing in mice.
Ramdya Laboratory of Neuroengineering reverse-engineers cognitive and motor behaviors in the fly, Drosophila melanogaster, to better understand the mind and to design more intelligent robots. Flies are an ideal model: they generate complex behaviors, their nervous systems are small, and they are genetically malleable. Our lab develops and leverages advanced microscopy, machine learning, genetics, and computational modeling approaches to address systems-level questions. We are always looking for talented researchers to join our team. Join us! There is much to discover!
More positions may be still posted! Please check this list regularly and contact the EDNE administrator if you have already finalized your application and would like to add on another lab interest.

Schneggenburger Laboratory of Synaptic Mechanisms. One position,
The Schneggenburger lab investigates the synaptic- and circuit mechanisms of fear learning, with a focus on how auditory stimuli acquire negative emotional valence, and ultimately instruct defensive behaviors. For this, we use state-of-the art in-vivo optogenetic methods, in-vivo Ca2+ imaging and electrophysiology of neuronal activity, as well as anatomical- and ex-vivo functional investigations of synaptic connectivity. For more information, see here
