We have funded PhD positions at UCLs Institute of Child Health with the possibility to perform a project across a range of imaging and developmental cognitive projects including: Calming the storm: Understanding and modulating brain connectivity in epilepsy to reduce epileptic discharges and their impact on cogn<https://www.ucl.ac.uk/ich/education/fellowships-studentships/phd-studentships/chr-phdstudentships-2015-16/chr-funded-projects-2016-17/carmichael-sharp-cross>itive brain networks<https://www.ucl.ac.uk/ich/education/fellowships-studentships/phd-studentships/chr-phdstudentships-2015-16/chr-funded-projects-2016-17/carmichael-sharp-cross> (Dr David Carmichael) Ultra high resolution imaging in epilepsy<https://www.ucl.ac.uk/ich/education/fellowships-studentships/phd-studentships/chr-phdstudentships-2015-16/chr-funded-projects-2016-17/d-carmichael-2> (Dr David Carmichael) Quantitative MRI of the post mortem fetal brain<https://www.ucl.ac.uk/ich/education/fellowships-studentships/phd-studentships/chr-phdstudentships-2015-16/chr-funded-projects-2016-17/d-carmichael-3> (Dr David Carmichael) Long-term outcome after hemispherectomy in childhood: cognitive and neuroimaging predictors<https://www.ucl.ac.uk/ich/education/fellowships-studentships/phd-studentships/chr-phdstudentships-2015-16/chr-funded-projects-2016-17/liegeois-baldeweg> (Dr Frederique Liegeois) Habit learning versus cognitive learning after frontal or temporal lobe epilepsy surgery in childhood<https://www.ucl.ac.uk/ich/education/fellowships-studentships/phd-studentships/chr-phdstudentships-2015-16/chr-funded-projects-2016-17/f-vargha-khadem> (Professor Faraneh Vargha-Khadem) Towards optimal methods for functional network analysis in paediatric epilepsy<https://www.ucl.ac.uk/ich/education/fellowships-studentships/phd-studentships/chr-phdstudentships-2015-16/chr-funded-projects-2016-17/j-clayden> (Dr Jonathan Clayden).
