PhD In Population Medicine - Antimicrobial stewardship for asthma exacerbation

Cardiff University
Cardiff School of Medicine

Dr N Francis, Dr S Paranjothy

Application Deadline: 27 February 2019

This project addresses the priority area antimicrobial resistance (AMR), which is a key public health threat. Use of antibiotics drives AMR and most antibiotics are prescribed in primary care.

Towards new antibacterial drugs to treat infections caused by multidrug-resistant bacteria: identification and characterization of novel natural product antibiotics

University of Leeds
Faculty of Biological Sciences

Research Group: Astbury Centre for Structural Molecular Biology

Dr A O'Neill

Applications accepted all year round

The World Health Organization (WHO) has declared antimicrobial drug resistance one of the greatest problems currently facing human health, and the situation is especially grave in the case of infections caused by bacterial pathogens.

PhD Research Project Type/Funding

High-throughput discovery of novel antibiotics using synthetic microbiology

University of Portsmouth
School of Pharmacy and Biomedical Sciences

Dr R Draheim

Applications accepted all year round

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a frequent problem in the treatment of disease caused by several clinical bacterial pathogens. In the European Union, antibiotic-resistant infections kill nearly 25,000 patients and represent a total expenditure of £1.5 billion per year.

PhD Research Project Type/Funding

Discovery and characterisation of new antibiotics from uncultivated microbes.

Victoria University of Wellington
School of Biological Sciences

Dr J Owen

Applications accepted all year round

Recent developments in DNA sequencing technology have greatly enriched our understanding of the microbial world. By directly sequencing DNA extracted from communities of environmental microbes, we have been able to observe a hidden majority of microbial species that cannot be readily grown in the laboratory.
