About the Project

We are looking to recruit a high-caliber postgraduate student from a range of physical-science, engineering, life-science and medical backgrounds to join a globally unique, dynamic, multi-disciplinary, world-class team to receive training in Optical Medical Imaging within The Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) and Medical Research Council (MRC) Centre for Doctoral in Optical Medical Imaging.

The EPSRC and MRC CDT in Optical Medical Imaging has been established to ensure that the UK has a strong and sustained pipeline of future scientific leaders and innovators in optical medical imaging encompassing the molecular, cellular, preclinical and clinical applications of physical and biomedical science in this priority area.

Our CDT is offering a 4 year PhD studentship combining excellent training and PhD supervision in world-leading scientific environments. You will benefit from summer and winter schools, industrial placements, clinical mentors and an integrated business-skills course delivered in partnership with the UoE Business School, the Hunter Centre (UoS) and our industrial partners.
The EPSRC and MRC CDT in Optical Medical Imaging will provide the successful applicant with a dynamic and exciting environment that is at the forefront and interface of physical sciences and clinical application.

We are now offering a PhD Studentship in any one of the interdisciplinary topics spanning the physical and biomedical sciences.
