  Airway, Liver and Muscle Gene Transfer to Create Therapeutic Protein Factories: utilising experience of in vivo gene transfer and/or in vivo gene editing to understand and manipulate the factors required for effective expression and secretion of therapeutic proteins
University of Oxford Radcliffe Department of Medicine
  Dr S Hyde, Dr D Gill
Application Deadline: 11 January 2019
We are focusing on strategies to deliver therapeutics via in vivo delivery of gene transfer vectors to generate ectopic “protein factories” capable of secreting therapeutic proteins into both the lung lumen and the systemic circulation.

  Resurrecting ancestral human sugars: a novel ‘molecular archaeology’ approach to cancer immunotherapy using chemical bioconjugation
University of York Department of Chemistry
  Dr M A Fascione, Prof G Davies, Prof J Southgate
Application Deadline: 9 January 2019
Background. Human cells surfaces are coated in a thick layer of sticky sugars called the glycocalyx. The composition of this coating is dynamic and changes depending on cell type and function.

  Peptide Self-assembling for Biomedical Applications
University of Sheffield Department of Chemical & Biological Engineering
  Dr X Zhao
Application Deadline: 23 January 2019
Designed short peptides can self-assemble into different nanostructures (such as nanovesicles and nanofibrils) through weak interactions and have a variety of applications.

Type/Funding
  NIR Light-triggered delivery of viral vectors for gene therapies
University of Manchester School of Materials
  Dr S Jones
Applications accepted all year round
This project looks to develop a platform technology that utilises external stimuli, such as light for the triggered polymer un-coating of viral vectors for in-vivo targeted delivery.

Type/Funding
  First steps towards gene therapy for congenital bladder disease
University of Manchester Faculty of Biology, Medicine and Health
  Dr N Roberts, Prof A Woolf
Applications accepted all year round
In the congenital disease urofacial syndrome (UFS), urinary bladder voiding is incomplete due to poor co-ordination between detrusor muscle contraction and bladder outlet relaxation.
Details
Type/Funding
  Genome Engineering and Synthetic Biology: Design and implementation of synthetic circuits for research and therapeutic applications.
University of Oxford Radcliffe Department of Medicine
  Prof T Fulga
Application Deadline: 11 January 2019
Design and implementation of synthetic circuits for research and therapeutic applications.
