A big data and bioinformatics study to predict and prevent Saprolegniosis outbreaks in Scottish salmon farms
This research project is a prestigious industry fully funded 42 month PhD bioinformatic and modelling studentship that also will provide essential networking in the aquaculture industry. Read more
In vivo analysis of stress system dynamics. MRC GW4 BioMed DTP PhD studentship 2024/25 Entry, PhD in department of Clinical and Biomedical Sciences.
About the GW4 BioMed2 Doctoral Training Partnership. The partnership brings together the Universities of Bath, Bristol, Cardiff (lead) and Exeter to develop the next generation of biomedical researchers. Read more
High-throughput biomaterials discovery
Polymer biomaterials have revolutionised a range of areas from drug delivery, to antimicrobials, to cellular cryopreservation. There are 1000’s of possible monomer combinations, molecular weights and architectures to be explored, and even small differences can dramatically change their properties. Read more
Adaptation to environmental change in animals: ecology, evolution and genomics.
How are animals able to live in different environments, with different temperatures, energetic demands, diet, predators, parasites or pH? Thanks to advances in gene sequencing technology, we are in a remarkable period of discovery about the genomic basis of adaptation and how this depends on the intricacies of ecology and environment.

How cells regulate chromosome segregation in mitosis and how this goes wrong in cancer
Human cells store their genetic information in 46 chromosomes. To maintain this vital genetic information, a complete set of chromosomes must be inherited precisely by each daughter cell after cell division. Read more
PhD in Infection, Immunity, Antimicrobial Resistance & Repair - Developing virus-based cancer vaccines with molecular enhancers
Summary. Cancer immunotherapy has revolutionised the field of oncology. This project uses molecular enhancement of an established vaccine platform to develop cancer vaccines with increased potency. Read more
Developing a device for marine life and water quality monitoring
This project offers the right candidate a £5000 bursary contribution in the first year only. Please contact the supervisor for more detail. Read more
Delineation of neuronal circuits integrating nutritional signals
This is an exciting project investigating neuronal circuits regulating feeding behaviour. Obesity has reached pandemic dimensions since the last several decades and is one of the leading agents behind the increased prevalence of Type 2 Diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Read more

Chromosome Paints: Investigating Chromosome Pairing in Arabidopsis using Oligo Paints
Meiosis, a specialised cell division, underlies sexual reproduction. During meiosis pairs of related chromosomes (homologs) must find one another, co-align, and undergo reciprocal exchange known as “crossing-over”. Read more
Evaluating the potential consequences of climate heating for Caspian seals and ecosystem services in the Caspian Sea
The School of Biology invites applications from prospective postgraduate researchers who wish to commence study for a PhD in the academic year 2023/24. Read more
The function and mechanisms of animal defensive coloration
“The colours of many animals seem adapted to their purposes of concealing themselves, either to avoid danger, or to spring upon their prey.” Darwin, E. Read more
