  (BBSRC DTP) Morphological control of cell fate, behaviour and function
University of Manchester Faculty of Biology, Medicine and Health
  Dr S Herbert, Prof N Papalopulu, Dr M Baron
Application Deadline: 31 January 2019
Tissue formation critically depends on the appropriate assignment of specialised cell fates and behaviours. The traditional perspective of these competitive decisions is that cells first perceive extrinsic signalling cues, decide their fate and then act appropriately (i.e.

  MRC Precision Medicine DTP: Connecting Molecular Profiles to Phenotype: A Proteomic Resource for Assigning Cell Cycle and Senescent States
University of Edinburgh School of Biological Sciences
  Research Group: Institute of Cell Biology
  Dr T Ly, Dr A Lindqvist
Application Deadline: 7 January 2019
Background. Cellular heterogeneity is frequently found in solid tumours and is thought to contribute to resistance to cancer therapy.

  Mechanisms of microtubule organization by cell-cell adhesion in epithelial cells.
University of Sheffield Department of Biomedical Science
  Dr N Bulgakova
Application Deadline: 23 January 2019
The correct organization of the microtubule cytoskeleton is critical for the survival and normal function of cells in a multicellular organism.

  Studying cell-cell interactions during collective cell migration during Drosophila tissue morphogenesis
University of St Andrews School of Biology
  Research Group: Biomedical Sciences Research Centre
  Dr M Bischoff
Application Deadline: 7 January 2019
Background. To shape tissues and organs, cells undergo different behaviours, such as cell migration and shape change. Many morphogenetic processes rely on collective cell migration, where cells move coordinately as a group (Scarpa and Mayor, 2016).

  Hematopoietic Stem Cell Genetics: Using single cell biology and genetics to understand how hematopoietic stem cells normally sustain blood formation, and how this process is altered during ageing and when leukemia develops.
University of Oxford Radcliffe Department of Medicine
  Prof Claus Nerlov, Dr P Vyas
Application Deadline: 11 January 2019
Using single cell biology and genetics to understand how hematopoietic stem cells normally sustain blood formation, and how this process is altered during ageing and when leukemia develops.

  Molecular mechanisms underpinning EML4 driven microtubule stabilization and cell migration
University of Leicester Molecular and Cell Biology
  Dr A M Fry, Prof K Brown
Application Deadline: 1 January 2019
EML4 is a poorly characterised microtubule-associated protein [1]. The purpose of this cell biology-focused PhD project is to explore the molecular mechanisms through which EML4 regulates microtubule dynamics and cell migration.

  The effect of polysialyltransferase modulation on tumour cell migration
University of Bradford Faculty of Life Sciences
  Research Group: Institute of Cancer Therapeutics
  Dr S Shnyder, Dr R Falconer
Applications accepted all year round
One of the main reasons for failure of cancer therapy today is an inability to control tumour dissemination, with secondary tumour deposits the cause of morbidity.

  Profiling stem cell epigenetic transitions within the Drosophila hematopoietic stem cell niche
University of Birmingham Institute of Immunology and Immunotherapy
  Dr P Badenhorst, Prof C Bonifer
Applications accepted all year round
The self-renewal and differentiation of stem cells is controlled by signals derived from the microenvironment or “niche”. The paired hematopoietic organs of the Drosophila genetic model organism are a well-characterized system in which the regulation of stem cell behaviour within a niche can be genetically dissected.

  Molecular dissection of blood cell fate determination: identifying key principles in the control of cell fate decisions
University of Oxford Radcliffe Department of Medicine
  Dr C Porcher, Prof M DeBruijn, Prof T Milne
Application Deadline: 11 January 2019
Molecular dissection of blood cell fate determination.

  Stochastic modelling of cell cycle control in cancer
Imperial College London Department of Mathematics
  Dr P Thomas, Dr A Barr
Application Deadline: 31 January 2019
We have an exciting opportunity for a student who wishes to work at the interface of cancer medicine and mathematics. This cross-disciplinary project is part of a thriving collaboration between the Biomathematics Group (P Thomas) and the MRC London Institute of Medical Sciences (LMS; A Barr) at Imperial College London.
