  Lead isotope ratio measurements in microcosms and avian samples as indicators for the source of lead poisoning in wildfowl
Kingston University Faculty of Science, Engineering and Computing
  Dr J Barker, Dr S Barton
Applications accepted all year round
Lead (Pb) poisoning is commonly linked amongst anthropogenically-caused deaths in waterfowl and this is often associated with hunting and fishing activities.

  Development of biomechanically musculoskeletal models and its application in understanding of ageing process for health
University of Dundee School of Medicine
  Dr W Wang
Applications accepted all year round
The ageing process in health is one of main research topics currently and in the near future. The key icon for ageing in health is daily movements, e.g.walking.

  Clinical Genetics: Building the skull – normal and abnormal development
University of Oxford Radcliffe Department of Medicine
  Prof A Wilkie, Dr S Twigg
Application Deadline: 11 January 2019
Working closely with the craniofacial teams based in Oxford and other UK units, we specialise in the application of whole exome and genome sequencing to children born with a serious malformation of the skull termed craniosynostosis.

  Phylogeography of European ungulates from the last interglacial period and their subsequent evolution
Durham University Department of Biosciences
  Prof AR Hoelzel
Application Deadline: 12 January 2019
This study will use next generation sequencing methods to explore the genetic diversity of deer and other ungulates from the Eemian interglacial period, ~120,000 years ago.

  PhD project: Automation of seismic processing with machine learning
Ecole Polytechnique de Montreal Department of Civil, Geological and Mining Engineering
  Prof G Fabien-Ouellet
Applications accepted all year round
Seismic imaging is a powerful technology used by geologists and engineers to image soils and rocs.

  A comprehensively analysis of microorganisms and viruses from ancient samples using minion sequencing techniques
Max Planck Society Max Planck Institute for the Science of Human History
  Prof M Marz
Application Deadline: 31 January 2019
In current metagenomic samples we are able to assign only up to 10% of the microorganisms, most of them being bacteria. This number drops significantly when investigating additionally viruses in especially ancient samples.

  A genetic investigation of human and non-human remains from Hadrian’s Wall and the northern frontier of the Roman empire (ref: SF18/APP/GRAHAM)
Northumbria University Faculty of Health and Life Sciences
  Dr E Graham
Applications accepted all year round
Over the past decade, advances in genetic technologies have made it possible to determine much more information from a sample of DNA.

  Biomolecular taphonomy: the use of biomolecules to estimate post-mortem interval for forensic applications (RDF19/HLS/AS/PROCOPIO)
Northumbria University Faculty of Health and Life Sciences
  Dr N Procopio
Application Deadline: 25 January 2019
The estimation of the time since death (or post-mortem interval, PMI) is one of the most debated topics in forensic anthropology and, despite the great number of studies conducted on this subject, it still suffers from poor precision and reliability, in particular in cases of advanced decay and/or dry remains.

  Structure, Function and Biogenesis of the Mycobacterial Cell Wall
University of Birmingham School of Biosciences
  Prof G Besra
Applications accepted all year round
There has been no significant decrease in worldwide mortality due to tuberculosis (TB) since before the time of Koch; the advent of sanatoria and chemotherapy, which drastically reduced TB in the more developed countries, has had no profound effect on the global problem.

  ’Mechano-culture’ of stem cells for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine
University of Liverpool Institute of Ageing and Chronic Disease
  Dr JR Henstock
Applications accepted all year round
OVERVIEW. The core objective of the PhD is to develop a new pneumatic (hydrostatic) pressure bioreactor for manufacturing mesenchymal stem cells.
