For bachelor, master and PhD students, trainees and prospective lab members.
Student projects in the lab can move between microscopy, physiology, behaviour, coding and experimental hardware. The goal is not to arrive knowing everything — it is to learn how to turn curiosity into a tractable experiment.
A future version of this section can walk through a real student project: the first day at the rig, the first useful trace, the first failed analysis, and the point where a result finally becomes interpretable.
Meet potential mentorsLearning together
Students, mentors and technical staff share short perspectives on learning experiments, analysis and scientific independence.
The long-form scroll section sets the scene; the cards below remain practical reference points.
The student-facing branch is less condensed than the research branch, but still scientifically serious.
Learn how sounds, vibrations and sensory organs can be measured with quantitative methods.
Use model organisms to link genes, cells, sensory organs and behaviour.
Work with traces, images, behavioural data and reproducible analysis pipelines.
A future section can point to real student projects and thesis topics.
You want to know how physical forces become neural activity.
You are comfortable learning microscopy, electrophysiology, imaging, coding or behaviour.
You enjoy moving between biology, physics, technology and analysis.
Move around the calcium-imaging workstation, identify the main components and get a spatial sense of the experimental workflow.
