ABM CDT Comparison of pluripotent and multipotent stem cells in articular cartilage bioprinting
Articular cartilage (AC) defects are one of the major causes of immobility and poor quality of life for millions of individuals worldwide, but current medical therapies fail to provide long-term restoration of pain-free function. Read more
Understanding the epigenetic mechanisms controlling pluripotent stem cells that power whole body animal regeneration
This project is part of the. DPhil in Biology at the University of Oxford. Some animals have the capacity to regenerate their whole bodies from small starting fragments, including the entire nervous system and brain. Read more

The role of non-coding RNAs and epitranscriptomics in shaping 3D chromatin architecture in stem cells.
We are looking for an enthusiastic PhD student interested in working on non-coding RNAs and chromatin architecture at the Center for Human Technologies @IIT (Genova-Italy). Read more
Identifying the pathways that control extra-embryonic cells
Research Group:
Midlands Integrative Biosciences Training Partnership (MIBTP)
In many animals, interactions between cells that make the animal – “embryonic progenitors”, and supporting cells that are not a part of the animal – “extra-embryonic cells”, are essential for normal embryonic development. Read more
Exploring the role of MYBL2 in Replication stress
Every time a cell divides, the genome must be faithfully duplicated and segregated to provide a copy for each daughter cells. The complexity of DNA processing in combination with the persistent exposure to genotoxic stimuli means that the fidelity of the genetic code is constantly under threat. Read more

EASTBIO: Wnt signalling regulates early human embryonic stem cell development
This fully funded, 4-year PhD project is part of a competition funded by the . BBSRC EASTBIO Doctoral Training Partnership. Read more
Understanding mechanisms driving tissue morphogenesis and cell fate during early embryonic development
Research Group:
Midlands Integrative Biosciences Training Partnership (MIBTP)
Background and scientific rationale. Embryonic tissues and organs are shaped and patterned by complex genetic, molecular and cellular mechanisms that regulate essential processes during development [1]. Read more
Uncovering the role of NF-κB in embryonic stem cell pluripotency and differentiation
This exciting project offers an opportunity for a motivated student to contribute to new understanding of the cellular decision mechanisms that control the fate of cells in the early embryo. Read more
Defining the role of WT1 in cellular and molecular processes during gastrulation, in embryos and gastruloids
In an ageing population, injury and degenerative processes lead to increased pressure on the NHS due to demand on treatments. Read more

Aging before birth: identifying influences of modifiable maternal lifestyle on telomere length
The process of aging begins even before we are born, and there is gaining evidence that some individuals are born biologically older as a consequence of their exposure in utero to adversity. Read more

Understanding the Role of Extracellular Vesicle/Exosome Transport in the Visual System
For informal enquiries, please contact the supervisor. Dr Ben Mead (. MeadB@Cardiff.ac.uk. ). Cellular communication has typically been understood as cells secreting messenger proteins, known as cytokines and growth factors, which bind to receptors on recipient cells and elicit their desired effect.
