Cancer: Understanding the immunosuppressive role of fibroblast and macrophages in Breast cancer
Oncolytic viruses (OVs) preferentially infect and kill cancer cells, and their clinical efficacy has been demonstrated against a number of different cancers. The most clinically advanced OV is a genetically engineered herpes simplex virus (T-VEC) which expresses GMCSF to aid the development of anti-tumour immune responses; T-VEC is approved for the treatment of metastatic melanoma.

Liver immunology, regeneration and viral infection projects (SARS-CoV-2, hepatitis viruses)
We are seeking talented, motivated students with a passion for immunology research to join the Viral and Liver Immunology group led by Dr Zania Stamataki. Read more
Cancer Neuroscience: Investigating the impact of non-CNS tumours on neuronal plasticity in the brain
Cancer is one of the leading causes of death worldwide, resulting in approximately 18 million new cases and 10 million deaths each year. Read more
Examining How Thymus Stromal Cells Control T Cell Development
We are seeking talented, motivated students with a passion for research in T-cell development and thymus biology to study under the supervision of Dr William Jenkinson. Read more
Mechanisms of Cancer Stem Cell Survival, Metastasis Formation and Immune Evasion in Cancer
Recent research suggests that cancer cells within a tumour represent a highly heterogeneous cell population. In particular many tumours contain small percentage of cells that share several characteristics with stem cells. Read more

PhD student (m/f/d) in Nutrition, Microbiology and Immunology
In this PhD project (P18), we study the role of sulfate-reducing bacteria in the pathogenesis of inflammation-associated cancer. Incidence rates of inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) have increased substantially and IBD patients have a significantly elevated risk of developing colorectal cancer (CRC). Read more
Neurodegeneration-associated protein TAU: Novel regulation during the DNA damage response and links to p53.
Tau is a protein that regulates microtubule stability and dynamics and is involved in neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s Disease - which is the most prevalent form of Dementia. Read more
Investigating the interplay between the immune consequences of pelvic radiotherapy, the gut microbiome and long-term side-effects (3 year studentship)
The North West has a higher prevalence of pelvic cancers compared to the rest of England. People often present with more locally advanced cancers necessitating treatment which may lead to more long term morbidity. Read more

Understanding the role of inflammation and immune selection in the context of clonal haematopoiesis and blood cancer
This PhD studentship is funded via an NIHR grant supporting collaboration between clinicians and scientists at St. James's hospital, Leeds, the Centre for Blood Research, Biology Department, York, and the Epidemiology and Cancer Statistics Group, York. Read more
Overcoming Metabolic Reprogramming by Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma to Improve Adoptive Cellular Immunotherapies
About the project. Changes in metabolism are a hallmark of cancer development and have profound inhibitory effects on the local anti-tumour immune response. Read more
Faculty of Medicine and Faculty of Dental Medicine
At The Hebrew University of Jerusalem, ranked 77th among the world's 100 leading universities (Shanghai Ranking, 2022), international students can earn a PhD in biomedical sciences at the Faculty of Medicine or the Faculty of Dental Medicine. Read more
Investigating the interplay between the immune consequences of pelvic radiotherapy, the gut microbiome and long-term side-effects
The North West has a higher prevalence of pelvic cancers compared to the rest of England. Around 40% of all people with cancer have curative-intent radiotherapy (RT) with 1 in 3 people having pelvic radiotherapy as an important component of their anti-cancer treatment. Read more
PRIORITIZING DRUG COMBINATIONS IN LEUKEMIA BASED ON ANALYSIS OF TARGETTED THERAPY IN VIVO
The inhibition of BCR-associated kinases by so-called B cell receptor signalling inhibitors in B cell leukemia and lymphomas is a potent therapeutic strategy, and several BTK and PI3K kinase inhibitors are available for clinical use (Ondrisova and Mraz, 2020). Read more
Harnessing the crosstalk between extracellular matrix stiffness and tissue redox chemistry to modulate the fate of macrophages
We are seeking a highly motivated candidate with strong academic background in immunology, chemistry, biology or related area for a multidisciplinary PhD project focused on development of biomaterials with immune modulatory properties with potential applications in immune therapy and vaccination.
