  Fish Cardiac Physiology in an Era of Climate Change
University of Manchester Faculty of Biology, Medicine and Health
  Dr H Shiels, Dr R Nudds
Applications accepted all year round
Effective cardiac pumping is critical to supply oxygen for all physiological functions and is a primary determinant of a fish’s upper thermal tolerance.

  MRC DiMeN Doctoral Training Partnership: The direct effect of statins on cardiovascular function
University of Liverpool MRC DiMeN Doctoral Training Partnership
  Dr M Cross, Prof J Schneider, Prof H Poptani, Dr B Wilm
Application Deadline: 21 January 2019
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death in the western world. The incidence and prevalence of CVD is highest among the elderly due to the deleterious effects of advancing age on the heart and blood vessels1.

  MRC DiMeN Doctoral Training Partnership: Developing non-invasive imaging strategies to investigate the effect of kidney disease on cardiovascular health and assess the ameliorative effect of a regenerative medicine therapy
University of Liverpool MRC DiMeN Doctoral Training Partnership
  Prof P Murray, Prof J Schneider, Prof H Poptani, Dr B Wilm
Application Deadline: 21 January 2019
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). The strong association between CKD and CVD has been recognised for many years, but the mechanisms by which CKD causes CVD are largely unknown.
