  Molecular-genetic analysis of intra- and extra-cellular iron reduction systems in bacteria: role in gut colonisation and utilisation of dietary iron sources.
University of Reading School of Biological Sciences
  Prof S C Andrews
Applications accepted all year round
The innate immune defense systems respond to bacterial infection by reducing the amount of available iron in order to restrict bacterial growth.

  Microbial communities cycling organic sulfur compounds in Arctic sea ice
University of Warwick School of Life Sciences
  Research Group: CENTA - Central England NERC Training Alliance
  Dr H Schaefer, Dr Y Chen
Application Deadline: 21 January 2019
Overview. The Arctic is undergoing significant changes due to climate warming. Arctic ice cover has significant feedbacks and regulatory function for regional and global climate, but recently the extent of ice cover in the Arctic Ocean has fallen to record low levels.

  Bacterial sensory perception: investigating the stimuli that bacteria can sense and how this information is used to regulate bacterial behavior
University of Leicester Department of Infection Immunity & Inflammation
  Dr H O'Hare
Applications accepted all year round
Bacteria sense numerous environmental stimuli and integrate this information to regulate their own cellular processes accordingly.

  Genotype to Phenotype: the Bacterial Epigenome as a Key Player in Defining Bacterial Success
University of York Department of Biology
  Dr M van der Woude, Dr J P J Chong
Application Deadline: 7 January 2019
Bacterial success depends on the ability to adapt to changing environments,. and this in turn requires the genotype to generate a successful phenotype.

  Transcriptional and environmental control of bacterial nitrous oxide emissions (ROWLEYUBIO19ARIES)
University of East Anglia School of Biological Sciences
  Dr G Rowley, Dr J Todd, Prof L Baggs
Application Deadline: 8 January 2019
Background. Nitrous oxide (N2O) is a potent greenhouse gas. Although atmospheric N2O levels are lower than that of CO2, it has a 300-fold greater global warming potential, and represents around 10% of total global greenhouse gas emissions.

  Genotype-to-structure: analysis of the glycosylation of the flagella of Campylobacter jejuni, a major cause of food-borne gastroenteritis
University of Leicester Department of Genetics and Genome Biology
  Dr C D Bayliss, Prof J Ketley
Application Deadline: 6 January 2019
Campylobacter jejuni is the major causative agent of foodborne gastroenteritis across Europe. Contaminated chicken meat is the main source of infections and hence control of this pathogen is critical to food security in the poultry industry.
