chromosome segregation PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

We have 13 chromosome segregation PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

Cellular mechanisms of equal chromosome segregation and genome stability

The PhD project will investigate how chromosomes segregate equally in each cell division through epigenetic regulation of the centromere, and how cells respond in stress conditions to maintain genome instability. Read more

Investigating the role of SUMOylation in meiotic recombination and chromosome segregation in Arabidopsis

Post-translational modifications of proteins such as phosphorylation, methylation and acetylation have been extensively studied in eukaryotes and now the Small Ubiquitin modifier (SUMO) is gaining attention for its importance in fundamental biological roles. Read more

Understanding gene regulation by HDAC1 complexes in development and cancer

Packaging DNA into nucleosomes helps protect the long fragile genomes of eukaryotic species. However, in doing so it becomes an ever-present physical barrier to the machinery required for its replication, repair and transcription. Read more

The Survivin Interactome in Health and Disease

Survivin is a small protein that is essential for life but that also contributes to disease, most notably cancer, in which its abnormal overexpression is linked to therapeutic resistance and metastasis. Read more

MSc by Research: Regulation of Kinetochore function by PLK1

Accurate partition of the duplicated genome during cell division is crucial for cellular viability and organismal development. Chromosome mis-segregation is a major source of aneuploidy and it is a hallmark of cancer, while in oocytes represents the major source of miscarriages and genetic disease. Read more

MSc By Research: Molecular mechanism for Wapl-mediated releasing of cohesin from DNA

The MSc by Research programme at the University of Aberdeen is for students interested in a research-intensive master's degree. It is designed specifically to enhance your skills for a PhD or research career. Read more
