  Policies and Politics: an investigation of how anaerobic digestion processes comply with current environmental policies
Aberdeen University School of Social Sciences
  Dr D Toke, Dr T Kiso
Application Deadline: 28 February 2019
This project will involve work on environmental policies and investigation of how anaerobic digestion processes comply with current environmental policies; what changes in policies will be needed to make these processes feasible to fit in with environmental priorities, and the conditions under which the technology can be reconciled with both economic and sustainability objectives.

  Metabolomic studies of E. coli adaptation from anaerobic to aerobic growth
University of Sheffield Department of Molecular Biology and Biotechnology
  Prof M P Williamson
Applications accepted all year round
Escherichia coli is a commensal organism that lives in the human gut. Occasionally it gives rise to food poisoning incidents, but mainly it is important for digestion and uptake of nutrients.
