  Novel drug target validation for treating Diabetes Mellitus (ref: SF18/APP/Soundararajan)
Northumbria University Faculty of Health and Life Sciences
  Dr M Soundararajan
Applications accepted all year round
The important cellular entities responsible for fighting against infections in our body are the T cells. T cells are however also shown to play a central role in the development of autoimmune diseases (AIDs) as “T cell activation hijacking” is the major autoimmune reaction causing mechanism observed in several AIDs.

  How does immunometabolism vary in time and space in the germinal centre?
University of Oxford Kennedy Institute of Rheumatology
  Dr A Clarke, Prof R Cornall
Application Deadline: 11 January 2019
The germinal centre (GC) reaction is responsible for the production of high-affinity antibodies and immune memory. It is vital for an effective humoral immune response, for example following vaccination.

  The role of tissue damage-associated lipids in triggering pathogenic neutrophil responses in inflammatory diseases
University of Oxford Kennedy Institute of Rheumatology
  Prof I Udalova, Prof C Buckley
Application Deadline: 11 January 2019
Neutrophils are well recognised for their ability to rapidly enter the site of tissue damage and microbial infection where they kill microorganisms by either ingesting them or releasing anti-microbial activities and facilitate wound repair.
