  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.

  (BBSRC DTP) Integrative statistical inference methods for eukaryotic gene regulation with applications to embryonic stem cell differentiation
University of Manchester Faculty of Biology, Medicine and Health
  Prof M Rattray, Dr I Iqbal, Prof A Sharrocks
Application Deadline: 31 January 2019
Embryonic stem cells (ESCs) can differentiate into different cell types through intermediary cell states and deeper understanding of the regulatory control underlying these differentiation stages is a very important topic in the study of mammalian development (Yang et al., 2014).

  Regulation of autophagy in human embryonic stem cells and its therapeutic application in induced pluripotent stem cell-based disease models
University of Birmingham Institute of Cancer and Genomic Sciences
  Dr S Sarkar
Applications accepted all year round
Project background. Regulation of proteostasis is critical for maintaining tissue homeostasis. Autophagy, a major intracellular degradation pathway essential for cellular and energy homeostasis, functions in the clearance of aggregation-prone proteins and damaged organelles.

  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: 26 July 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.

  Developmental response induced by abiotic stress during seed development in Brassica sp.
Masaryk University CEITEC
  Dr H.S Robert Boisivon
Application Deadline: 3 February 2019
Food production mostly relies on a proper sexual plant reproduction. Therefore research in fundamental aspects of seed development is crucial to the understanding of processes involved in seed viability.

  Gene Regulatory Networks in Development and Disease: Focusing on systems level “big picture” approaches to understand gene regulation and build gene regulatory networks during development and disease in zebrafish, chick, lamprey and human models.
University of Oxford Radcliffe Department of Medicine
  Dr T Sauka-Spengler
Application Deadline: 26 July 2019
Focusing on systems level “big picture” approaches to understand gene regulation and build gene regulatory networks during development and disease in zebrafish, chick, lamprey and human models.

  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: 26 July 2019
Molecular dissection of blood cell fate determination.

Type/Funding
  Dissecting the role of DNA methylation in spiral cleavage
Queen Mary University of London School of Biological & Chemical Sciences
  Dr JM Martin, Dr R Lowe
Application Deadline: 31 January 2019
Nearly all animals originate during a process called embryogenesis, in which a single cell – the zygote – develops into a multicellular complex organism.

Type/Funding
  Understanding how the NuRD complex regulates 3D genome organization using a combination of single-molecule super-resolution imaging and single cell biology
University of Cambridge Department of Biochemistry
  Prof E D Laue
Applications accepted all year round
The spatial organisation of the genome is known to play an important role in regulating RNA transcription to effect cell-type-specific gene expression programs, and to control the differentiation of embryonic stem (ES) cells.
