One or more Postdoc positions at the Center for Neuroplasticity and Pain (CNAP)
Are you enthusiastic about human pain research? The Center for Neuroplasticity and Pain (CNAP) at Aalborg University is recruiting one or more postdoctoral researchers, to start 1st of October 2026 or soon thereafter. The positions are available for a period of 1 ½ to 2 years. Who are we? CNAP strives to identify and modulate key features of human pain neuroplasticity and understand its relevance for persistent pain in humans. CNAP is a research Center of Excellence inaugurated in 2015 by the Danish National Research Foundation at Aalborg University, Denmark (www.cnap.hst.aau.dk). CNAP applies a basic research approach where new advanced biomedical provocation and probing platforms are being discovered and applied to study novel aspects of human pain neuroplasticity. The ambition of CNAP is to identify and modulate key features of human pain neuroplasticity through a systematic approach, including provoking, probing and modulation of the dynamic neuroplastic properties of the pain system. We believe that over time, this approach will foster new fundamental discoveries, change the state of the art, and offer novel ways for pain treatment. Our world class lab facilities enable advanced quantitative sensory/pain testing, application of cutting-edge neurophysiological assessments (e.g. EEG, TMS, TMS-EEG, rTMS, HD-tDCS), bio-medical techniques (e.g. linked with epigenetics and general biomarkers), quantitative sensory testing (QST) as well as research based on animal models (e.g. rodents and pigs). CNAP is a dynamic and international research environment: approximately 60% of our staff is international, with a close to 50-50% gender balance. Our working language is English. We are highly interdisciplinary and include experts within biomedical engineering, neuropsychology, pharmacology, biophysics, medicine with industrial specialisation, medicine, and more. You will thus be joining an inspiring, enriching, and productive cross-disciplinary research centre including staff with internationally recognised track records. CNAP participates in numerous international initiatives and maintains an extensive global network, making it an ideal environment to build your own collaborative connections. CNAP is affiliated with the Department of Health Science and Technology at the Faculty of Medicine, which conducts multidisciplinary research and teaching in health science and technology (e.g. medicine and biomedical engineering). The strategic focus of the department is to be a leading force within digital health and to be well-known for medical doctors and engineers collaboratively developing solutions together. The department has more than 250 employees and is responsible for more than 1700 students. Working at CNAP CNAP offers postdoctoral fellowships for exploring neuroplasticity and pain. As a postdoc you will contribute to our frontline research aimed at identifying novel mechanisms underlying the dynamics of pain neuroplasticity, while also advancing understandings of this topic within the academic world and beyond. Specifically, you will be focusing on the topic of Brain Neuro-Adaptability to Pain, in particular brain oscillations in pain conditions and non-invasive brain stimulation. You will be working alongside PhD students and other postdoctoral researchers as part of our Lundbeck Professorship grant, which you can learn more about here: https://www.cnap.hst.aau.dk/lundbeck-professorship As a postdoctoral researcher your tasks are to: Embark on the exciting and fundamental research track intended to provide mechanistic information on human brain changes in pain conditions. Your research will help us understand the mechanisms involved when pain becomes chronic. Work in a team using electroencephalography (EEG), transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), TMS-EEG, transcranial electrical stimulation (tES), quantitative sensory testing (QST), and psychological profiling to study and modulate the brain activity in clinical and experimental pain conditions Conduct a series of studies including individuals with experimental pain or chronic pain and healthy controls, with the aim of linking changes in pain mechanisms and measures of pain neuro-adaptability with changes in cortical manifestations during an intervention (e.g., non-invasive brain stimulation) for symptom reduction. Large-scale data analysis (e.g. machine-learning) may be involved. Training will be provided in all methodologies but prior experience with some techniques is an advantage, and experience in human pain research is a prerequisite. An opportunity to learn new advanced analysis techniques (e.g., in Matlab, R, or Python) if relevant for the task. Write up research results in the form of journal articles. Participate in and co-arrange national and international research conferences and be exposed to external research environments, for example, as a visiting researcher. Disseminate the results of your research to the public. Participate in the day-to-day life of CNAP (e.g., research meetings, Round Table Meetings, seminars, social activities). Develop a solid background in pain neuroscience that will allow you to foster a curious and critical sense to analyse and interpret scientific information. Further develop competences towards an academic or industrial research career. Contacts Thomas Graven-Nielsen: +4599409832, tgn@hst.aau.dk Louise Klem Skovgaard: +4599408567, lksk@adm.aau.dk
PhD fellowship at Department of Neuroscience
The Cai Lab does neuroscience research at the Department of Neuroscience, University of Copenhagen. They investigate how the neurovascular unit and neural circuits fail in brain disease, and how this knowledge can be translated into the development of new neurotechnologies and therapies. Our research has two closely connected pillars. First, we study the cellular mechanisms of neurovascular dysfunction in the living brain, with a particular focus on neurovascular coupling, blood flow regulation, and vascular cell signaling in health, aging, and ischemic stroke/reperfusion injury. Second, we develop novel neuroprosthetic and neuromodulation strategies for brain disorders, such as next-generation implantable micromagnetic coil-based microdevices for vision restoration and epilepsy. To address these questions, we combine multimodal in vivo imaging in awake and behaving mice with electrophysiology, viral tools, behavioural paradigms, and quantitative data analysis. By integrating neuroscience, vascular biology, and bioengineering, we aim both to uncover fundamental disease mechanisms and to advance new treatment strategies for neurological disorders.

PhD scholarship in the project ‘A Danish model for individual Cognitive Stimulation Therapy for peop...
The DiCST project is headed by Associate Professor Laila Øksnebjerg and will be conducted in close collaboration with dementia professionals from e.g. municipalities. As user-involvement is a key in the project, people with dementia and family caregivers are also regarded as collaborators. Moreover, the project will involve collaboration with international researchers. The project is funded by TrygFonden and Alzheimer-forskningsfonden. The DiCST study is based on Cognitive Stimulation Therapy (CST), which is a well-known psychosocial intervention method for people with mild to moderate dementia. There is profound evidence that CST can improve cognitive function and quality of life in people with dementia. CST was originally developed as a group-based manualised intervention delivered by professionals. The aim of the DiCST study is to design an individual psychosocial intervention for people with dementia, which is easy to access and implement in a home setting with a family caregiver. The aim of the intervention is to improve cognitive functions and quality of life of the person with dementia, as well as quality of life and aspects of caregiving for the family caregiver. Hence, DiCST will involve meaningful shared activities between a person with dementia and a family caregiver. The DiCST study will involve two sub-studies. In the first study the DiCST manual will be developed and evaluated, and methods and tools to support implementation of the DiCST intervention will be developed and evaluated. In the second study, the clinical effects of this DiCST method will be explored in a feasibility randomized controlled trial. The PhD programme provides PhD students with strong research training and includes independent research work (under supervision), active participation in research networks, PhD courses, teaching, and other forms of knowledge dissemination, as well as drafting and defending a PhD-dissertation. The open position is for a 3-year PhD, within the framework of the 5+3 study programme. Information For further information regarding the project, including the overall project description, please contact Associate Professor Laila Øksnebjerg (laoe@psy.ku.dk).
