  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.

  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.

  Innate antiviral immunity of human embryonic stem cells
University of Edinburgh School of Biological Sciences
  Research Group: Institute of Immunology & Infection Research
  Dr S Macias, Dr P De Sousa
Application Deadline: 13 December 2018

  Climate Change Solutions: Developmental Programming of Fish Thermal Tolerance Limits
University of Manchester Faculty of Biology, Medicine and Health
  Dr G Galli, Dr H Shiels
Applications accepted all year round
Climate change poses a significant threat to global biodiversity. Conservation strategies are critically dependent on a thorough understanding of the effects of fluctuating environments on animal morphology, physiology and behaviour.

  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.
