CAM-DTP ESRC Studentship, 2025 PhD ENTRY (Fixed Term)
The Cambridge ESRC Doctoral Training Partnership [CAM-DTP] is pleased to offer an interdisciplinary studentship available for admission in October 2025.
The studentship will be co-supervised by Dr Mirjana Bozic (Department of Psychology), Prof Brechtje Post (Theoretical and Applied Linguistics) and Dr Elaine Scmidt (Cambridge University Press and Assessment).
DTP students will acquire a unique set of skills that will equip them for high-profile careers as leading social scientists, in academia or in other government, industrial, commercial and third sector organisations, either in the UK or elsewhere.
Project description: This project integrates cognitive research with digital technology to develop an individualized approach to second language learning.
Tailoring instruction to students' abilities improves outcomes, while using multiple languages brings cognitive, cultural and economic benefits to individuals and society. Language learning is thus an obvious candidate for tailored instruction. Yet it is still dominated by one-size-fits-all approach. This has become a pressing issue as language education now faces a widening participation crisis. Many students, particularly from underrepresented backgrounds, are increasingly unable to access language programmes.
Digital technologies could help with this. Individualised language learning through digital technologies can make language learning more accessible, levelling the playing field for applicants with barriers to traditional language learning. They can increase flexibility, be more cost-effective, and most importantly be tailored to individual needs.
Our project will first identify key cognitive and environmental predictors of second language learning. It will focus on learning English as a second language, although the findings will be applicable generally. Collaborating with Cambridge University Press and Assessment, a world leading provider of language programmes, we will then create a digitally based method of individualised instruction, tailored to learners' unique predictors. We focus on adolescents as the population with a unique learning potential and motivation for learning a second language.
Fixed-term: The funds for this post are available for 3.5 years in the first instance.
ESRC Research Priority Area: Digital Society
The ideal student will have a language sciences or psychology background with theoretical knowledge of language processing and familiarity with experimental design with human participants. They will also have strong and demonstrable technical and programming skills. Candidates need to have excellent written and oral communication skills, in English.
CAM-DTP studentships support 3.5 - 4.5 years of full-time study. The studentship provides:
Tuition fees up to the value of the national UKRI rate for Home students; international students are welcome to apply but will need additional scholarships, from alternative sources, to fund the remainder of their fees and any immigration costs;
An annual tax-free stipend at the UKRI rate (£19,237 in 24/25 for full time students), and a contribution towards research and training costs;
A personalised training programme, to develop research, communication, employability and personal skills;
Support to carry out a required three-month placement, known as an Innovation Fellowship, with an academic or non-academic partner during the course of the studentship.
The successful candidate will be required to submit their PhD within the duration of the studentship award.

Project Coordinator (Part Time, Fixed Term)
Applications are invited for a project coordinator to work in the Memory Laboratory at the Department of Psychology, University of Cambridge (http://www.memlab.psychol.cam.ac.uk) on a project investigating the subjective experience of remembering.
What does it feel like to have a memory? We know surprisingly little about how we can vividly relive past events, which functions of the brain are involved, and how these processes vary across individuals, societies and cultures. In this new project, scientists and humanities scholars will collaborate across disciplines to drive a step-change both in understanding memory vividness and the associated brain mechanisms across the life-course, and in enhancing the interpretation of vividness in literary and historical works dating back to the early modern era.
The project coordinator will have responsibility for day-to-day operations of the project, including budget monitoring, open access, reporting and administrative support. They will also coordinate participant recruitment, ensuring diversity and inclusion in our participant groups, and will help organise our planned impact activities and online engagement.
Applicants should have excellent organisational skills, be highly motivated, enjoy working in a vibrant collaborative and interdisciplinary research environment, and be able to communicate effectively, both orally and in writing.
The post is part-time (1.5 days per week) and available from 1 February 2025.

Research Associate in Cognitive Neuroscience (Fixed Term)
Applications are invited for a postdoctoral cognitive neuroscience research associate position to work in the Memory Laboratory at the Department of Psychology, University of Cambridge (http://www.memlab.psychol.cam.ac.uk) investigating the subjective experience of remembering.
What does it feel like to have a memory? We know surprisingly little about how we can vividly relive past events, which functions of the brain are involved, and how these processes vary across individuals, societies and cultures.

The humanities research associate will analyse memory narratives pertaining to vividness in iconic literary moments and historical episodes from the early modern era. While focusing primarily on their own disciplines, both role-holders will work collaboratively together, and with the wider interdisciplinary team, to discuss and co-design the research, developing a common understanding that bridges the conceptual and terminological frameworks of each discipline.
Applicants for the role based in the Department of Psychology should have a Ph.D. in psychology, cognitive neuroscience, or related disciplines, and a strong interest in human long-term memory processes, demonstrated by first-authored peer-reviewed publications. Previous experience conducting and analysing data from behavioural studies and functional neuroimaging (fMRI) experiments, as well as computer programming skills (Matlab or Python) are necessary.

Research Assistant/Associate in Computational Psychiatry (Fixed Term)
Applications are invited for a postdoctoral research associate to study the mechanism of action of drugs used clinically to treat anxiety in humans. The successful candidate will be based in Prediction and Learning lab, run by Professor Rebecca Lawson (Department of Psychology).
The project ¿ funded by a Wellcome Mental Health Award - will specifically evaluate whether anti-anxiety medications that block the active reuptake of noradrenaline and serotonin (i.e., SNRIs and SSRIs) improve anxiety symptoms by adjusting how people represent uncertainty. Mechanistic insights will be informed using pharmacological interventions in an experimental medicine framework, and validated using high-resolution (7Tesla) magnetic resonance imaging.
