Directed Evolution of Photosystem I enzyme chimeras for light-driven biocatalysis
Primary Supervisor. Dr Tanai Cardona. Funding. China Scholarship Council (CSC). Deadline. 29th January 2025. Project Overview. Read more
Broadening the Catalytic Promiscuity of Amide Bond Synthetases using Directed Evolution and Robotic Screening
The industrial production of pharmaceutical compounds requires that they are synthesised in a very specific way, and that the methods used, where possible, involve non-toxic materials and the least hazardous conditions. Read more
(BBSRC NWD) Computationally‐driven redesign of enzymes for SNAr processes
Current computational design, aimed at improving the activity of a catalytic mechanism, focuses on identifying its transition states using quantum mechanics. Read more
[FSE Bicentenary PhD] Bioremediation through enzymatic dehalogenation
The production of organohalides is fundamental to a variety of industrial applications, including their use as solvents, degreasing agents, pesticides, and flame retardants. Read more
[FSE Bicentenary PhD] Design of Enzymes for Applications in RNA Therapeutics Manufacturing
The field of biocatalysis has advanced to the stage where it is now viewed as a key enabling technology for the development of a greener and more efficient chemical industry. Read more
AI research by, through, and for Design Fiction (RDF25/EE/CIS/RPANDA)
This research aims to explore Artificial Intelligence (AI) through the framework of Design Fiction, while simultaneously examining Design Fiction through the capabilities and perspectives of AI by focusing on three interconnected themes. Read more
Building orthogonal ribosome control for engineering biology
Background. Genetic control challenges in both fundamental biology and biotechnology are effectively tackled by building functionally separated (orthogonal) systems within one cell. Read more
Building orthogonal ribosome control for engineering biology
Background. Genetic control challenges in both fundamental biology and biotechnology are effectively tackled by building functionally separated (orthogonal) systems within one cell. Read more
Microbial engineering for innovative recycling and the circular economy
Global supply chains are dominated by linear, carbon positive, economic models; extract, use, dispose, which creates unsustainable systems reliant on finite geological reserves. Read more
The Xu lab at Georgia State University - Fully funded position available
The Xu lab focuses on Nanobodies. Nanobodies are antigen-binding entities derived from the heavy chain-only antibodies of camelid animals, and they retain full antigen specificity at a very small size (13 kDa). Read more

Development of effective phage cocktails for precise crop protection measures
Crop production plays a crucial role in ensuring global food security and maintaining economic stability, especially with the global population projected to reach 9.8 billion by 2050, necessitating a 70% increase in food production. Read more
Digital Innovation in Gene Therapy: AI-powered AAV engineering for lifecourse treatment of neurological disorders
Project ID. HI_15. Theme. Health Innovation. Delivering therapeutic agents across the blood-brain barrier (BBB) to target CNS diseases remains an ongoing critical challenge in neuroscience and gene therapy. Read more
Engineering Developable Biopharmaceuticals
The School of Molecular and Cellular Biology invites applications from prospective postgraduate researchers who wish to commence study for a PhD in the academic year 2024/25. Read more

Understanding the rules of life: how bacteria can "supercharge" their evolution to resist antibiotics
Research Group:
BBSRC MIBTP
My lab has discovered a process by which bacteria can “supercharge” their evolution (1). Specifically, transposable DNA sequences, so-called “jumping genes”, are directed to specific sites in chromosomes. Read more
Mathematical Complexity of Life: Origins, Evolution and Extinctions
In this project, we aim to unravel the complex dynamics of biological systems both on Earth and in the broader search for extraterrestrial life. Read more
