  Molecular mechanisms of neuronal ageing in bladder and bowel neurons (ref: SF18/APP/Ranson)
Northumbria University Faculty of Health and Life Sciences
  Dr R Ranson
Applications accepted all year round
Ageing results in a progressive loss of physiological function resulting in a reduced quality of life in the elderly. One of the more prevalent conditions associated with ageing is incontinence-both faecal and urinary.

  Defining how cancer cells acquire resistance to microtubule-based drugs
University of Edinburgh School of Biological Sciences
  Research Group: Institute of Cell Biology
  Dr J Welburn, Dr N Carragher
Application Deadline: 13 December 2018
Taxol (paclitaxel) is a major drug used in the treatment of solid cancers (breast, lung, ovarian, bladder). However, resistance to taxol arises regularly and thus it is critical to find ways to circumvent this resistance.
