Psychology-TCRS Studentship in Depression Research, 2026 PHD ENTRY

Applications are invited for a fully funded PhD studentship in Depression Research, to begin in October 2026. The studentship has been generously funded through a philanthropic donation and will cover full fees (UK or international) and a stipend for four years. The studentship is suited to an exceptional candidate proposing mechanistic research relevant to the understanding and/or treatment of Major Depressive Disorder. We particularly welcome proposals that align with the research interests of the Prediction and Learning Lab, led by Professor Rebecca Lawson, which focuses on prediction, learning, and mental health using computational approaches. Please note that this studentship does not support research involving animal models.
