  From Hematopoietic development towards generation of Hematopoietic stem cells
University of Edinburgh School of Biological Sciences
  Research Group: Institute of Stem Cell Research
  Prof A Medvinsky, Dr V Wilson
Application Deadline: 13 December 2018
Haematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) give rise to the majority of cells in the adult haematopoietic system, however, their embryonic development is poorly understood.

  Development of the hematopoietic/ immune system in the embryo: obtaining a mechanistic insight into the birth of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells in embryonic development
University of Oxford Radcliffe Department of Medicine
  Prof M DeBruijn
Application Deadline: 11 January 2019
Development of the hematopoietic/ immune system in the embryo. Our aim is to obtain a mechanistic insight into the birth of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells in embryonic development and determine the contribution of these cells to the emerging hematopoietic and immune systems of the embryo.

  Signalling pathways maintaining human embryonic stem cells
University of Manchester Faculty of Biology, Medicine and Health
  Prof S J Kimber, Prof D Brison
Applications accepted all year round
The aim of this project is to determine the function of novel genes predicted to have critical roles in preimplantation human development and in disease in later life.

University of Birmingham School of Biosciences
  Research Group: BBSRC MIBTP
  Dr M Soller, Prof F Mueller
Applications accepted all year round
Most mRNAs contain modified nucleotides in mRNA, but we know very little about their function (Haussmann et al, 2016, Dezi et al, 2016, Roignant and Soller, 2017).

Newcastle University School of Natural and Environmental Sciences
  Dr V Andriotis
Application Deadline: 11 January 2019
Seeds of flowering plants are made of distinct tissues – the embryo, endosperm and integuments – that collectively make a functional unit.

  Epigenetic control of transgenerational genome plasticity
University of Birmingham School of Biosciences
  Dr M Catoni
Application Deadline: 6 January 2019
Epigenetics is the major discipline studying heritable changes of gene activity that do not involve changes in the underlying DNA sequence.

  The Biology of Suspended Animation 2: discovering the process by which a diapausing embryo “senses” environmental cues to subsequently resume development
University of Birmingham School of Biosciences
  Research Group: BBSRC MIBTP
  Prof J Colbourne, Dr L Orsini, Prof M Viant, Prof J B Brown
Application Deadline: 6 January 2019
