The Gatsby Charitable Foundation (Gatsby) and the Wellcome Trust (Wellcome) are collaborating for the purpose of developing a new research centre in neural circuits and behaviour, to be called the Sainsbury-Wellcome Centre for Neural Circuits and Behaviour at UCL, and to support individual researchers in the field of neural circuits and behaviour elsewhere in the UK and the Republic of Ireland.

Gatsby and Wellcome, advised by an international panel of eminent neuroscientists, have selected UCL as the preferred host for the centre.

UCL is now beginning the recruitment process for the director of the centre.

Further particulars for the post are available on the UCL Medical School website.

Please note that the closing date is Friday 24 July 2009.
