Funded PhD scholarship at UQ for Australian/NZ domestic students

[David Smerdon]

Dear colleagues,

I’m advertising a funded PhD scholarship at the University of Queensland attached to my ARC DECRA project. The key eligibility constraint is that the scholarship is open only to domestic applicants under UQ rules: Australian citizens, Australian permanent residents/humanitarian visa holders, and New Zealand citizens.

The project will involve field experiments with two global industry partners, WHOOP and Chess.com, linking wearable/biometric data, online chess data and environmental data to study how sleep, exercise, diet and the environment affect cognitive performance and decision-making. 

I’d be grateful if you could pass this on to any strong eligible students who might be interested. The PhD advertisement is here:

Interested students are very welcome to contact me directly before applying.

Thanks very much,
David Smerdon
