The evolution of cell-cell signalling in unicellular eukaryotes, BBSRC SWBio DTP PhD studentship 2025
About. The BBSRC-funded SWBio DTP involves a partnership of world-renown universities, research institutes and industry, based mainly across the South West and Wales. Read more
Biological role of neuropeptides and their receptors
Cell signalling is critical to the co-ordination and functioning of all cells. Cell signalling allows cells to co-ordinate activities within the intracellular environment as well as ensuring cells know how to correctly respond to other cells and to an ever-changing extracellular environment as well. Read more
Control of skeletal muscle regeneration and aging by cell signalling
The ability of skeletal muscles to regenerate in response to injury, exercise, growth or disease depends on a population of adult skeletal muscle stem cells. Read more
Investigating novel modulators of cell signalling and motility
We are seeking talented, motivated students with a passion for research in cell signalling and motility led by Dr Vicki Smith at the University of Birmingham. Read more
MSc by Research: Targeted protein post-translational modification to rewire cell signalling
Post-translational modifications (PTMs) of proteins, such as ubiquitylation and phosphorylation, are fundamental determinants of protein function and cellular signalling. Read more
Pre-T Cell receptor signalling dynamics and its role in cellular lineage determination
In complex biological systems, checkpoints ensure that critical components are functioning correctly. A great example of this is our immune system, which must integrate signals from multiple cell-types to protect us from invading pathogens. Read more
Targeting cancer cell communication and chemoresistance via tunnelling nanotubes (SobolewskiA_U25SCI)
Primary supervisor - Dr Anastasia Sobolewski. Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is diagnosed at a late stage and has a poor prognosis. Although some targeted treatments exist, chemoresistance frequently occurs. One mechanism through which chemoresistance can happen is through tunnelling nanotubes (TNTs). Read more
Understanding early tissue formation in the embryo and outside mimicking developmental programmes
Embryonic tissues and organs are shaped and patterned by complex genetic, molecular and cellular mechanisms that regulate essential processes during development [1]. Read more

Investigating the structure, function and dynamics of the P2X7 receptor ballast domain
P2X7 receptors are ATP-activated cation channels predominantly expressed in immune cells. Read more
MSc by Research: Investigation of coordination of cell divisions during early embryonic development
Gastrulation is an essential process in early development, during which the forming ectoderm, mesoderm and endoderm take up their correct positions in the embryo. Read more
Exploring the roles of dynamic atypical protein phosphorylation in cancer
Proteins are extensively regulated by dynamic, often reversible post-translational modifications (PTMs). This process allows cells to respond rapidly to environmental factors, be that e.g. Read more
Live cell imaging of epithelial cancer cell proliferation for therapy
The School of Molecular & Cellular Biology invites applications from prospective postgraduate researchers who wish to commence study for a PhD in the academic year 2024/25. Read more

Non-genetic mechanisms of resistance to cell cycle inhibitors in cancer
Targeting cell cycle regulation is proving increasingly effective in cancer treatment. Read more
The Influence of Omega-3 Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids on the Development and Prevention of Skin Cancers (Ref: AACME-24-018)
Background. biomedical application of fish oil-derived omega-3 fatty acids. Dietary intake of omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids from fish oils has been shown to have various beneficial effects against inflammation and inflammatory diseases, as well as anti-tumour effects. Read more
Understanding how tyrosine phosphatases regulate the cytoskeleton
Question. Tyrosine phosphorylation of signalling proteins at the plasma membrane controls essential actin-dependent processes in eukaryotes, including migration, adhesion, and communication. Read more
