Determining the optimal mix of forestry systems and reserves under differing wildfire regimes for improving plant conservation
How to meet human needs for timber while limiting harm to biodiversity is an urgent scientific goal. The aim of this Australian Research Council funded PhD project are. Read more
Torymus sinensis: Monitoring the spread and ecological impacts of a non-native biological control agent in the UK
Research Group:
Institute of Ecology & Evolution
Background. Biological invasions are one of the main threats to global biodiversity. Many invasive species become serious pests, and biological control through release of natural enemies that attack the pest in its native range can be an effective strategy to reduce the damage they cause. Read more
Doctoral (PhD) Positions at International Max Planck Research School - Biological Intelligence
The International Max Planck Research School – Biological Intelligence (IMPRS-BI) has an open call for fully-funded doctoral student positions in the fields of behavior, neurobiology, connectomics, ecology and evolutionary genetics. Read more
MScR: Understanding the consequences of unpredictable cold stress events on a beneficial insect and the implications for natural pest control in agricultural landscapes
The earth is currently experiencing rapid changes in climate. As ectotherms, insects are highly susceptible to temperature change, with temperature impacting all aspects of their fitness. Read more
Investigating bacteria-bacteriophage diversity to develop phage libraries for treatment of bacterial infections
Project Overview. The World Health Organisation (WHO) predicts antimicrobial resistant (AMR) infections will be the leading cause of death globally by 2050. Read more
Investigating the mechanisms of antibacterial action of silver and copper ions and nanoparticles, and the emerging threat of metal-ion resistance
Project Overview. The emergence of bacterial strains with resistance to multiple classes of antibiotics has led to renewed interest in the antimicrobial properties of metals including silver. Read more
Examining the mechanisms that cause cardiovascular disease by studying the heart or adipose tissue
Heart failure has a serious impact on our society and once diagnosed has a poor survival rate. In the United Kingdom, there are about 1.5 million people living with the after-effects of a heart attack. Read more
Computation modelling of biological response to radiation at tissue level for Proton Therapy
Proton Beam Therapy (PBT) is a radically new type of radiotherapy that has the potential to improve the precision and targeting of radiotherapy leading to fewer side effects, faster recovery and better outcomes for patients. Read more
Biological self-healing for advanced and sustainable masonry materials
Biological processes, such as biomineralization, have been explored for consolidating porous materials and as a new class of self-healing cement-based building materials. Read more
