Institute of Ophthalmology 3-Year PhD Studentship: Using Spatial Biology to assess Ganglion Cell subsets and their interactions with Macroglia in Glaucoma
Institute of Ophthalmology 3-Year PhD Studentship. UCL Department / Division. UCL Institute of Ophthalmology. Duration of Studentship. Read more
Peptide-based nanoparticles for brain targeted gene delivery
Gene therapy has the potential to provide therapeutic benefit to millions of people with neurodegenerative diseases and cancer. Delivery into the brain is hampered by the blood-brain barrier (BBB), which limits the efficacy of both conventional and novel therapies at the target site. Read more
Therapeutic potential of extracellular vesicles from different mesenchymal stem cell subtypes
Human mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs) are found in adult tissues such as bone marrow and are able to differentiate into bone, cartilage and fat tissues. Read more
EPSRC CDT in Bioprocess Engineering Leadership: Complex Biological Products Manufacture
Biological products and their manufacture are progressing to unparalleled levels of complexity. Examples include engineered biocatalysts, antibody-drug conjugates, multivalent vaccines and cellular therapies. Read more

MSc By Research: Eyedrop therapy for blinding genetic eye condition, aniridia-associated keratopathy
Aniridia-associated keratopathy (AAK) is a potentially blinding genetic eye disease caused by heterozygous mutation in the eye ‘master regulator gene’, PAX6. Read more
Development of individualised approaches for the treatment of Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia caused by spastin mutations
Hereditary spastic paraplegia (HSP) is an inherited neurological disease primarily affecting upper motor neurons (UMNs), but with a range of other pathologies dependent on the underlying genetic mutation. Read more
Identification and characterisation of bacteriocins from environmental samples active against strains of Clostridium difficile.
Clostridiodes difficile is a cause of neonatal enteritis in livestock such as pigs, cattle and horses. Affected animals develop respiratory problems, abdominal distention and bloody diarrhoea leading to weight loss and in extreme cases mortality. Read more
Translational Medicine: Understanding the mechanism(s) of resistance to EPA to personalise therapy and improve outcome
Advanced colorectal cancer (CRC) is the UK’s second most lethal cancer, with limited treatment options for unresectable metastatic tumours. Read more
Evaluation of the therapeutic potential of microRNAs (miRNAs) for diabetes and related metabolic disorders
A fully-funded PhD opportunity for a candidate to join a multidisciplinary team led by Atlantic Technological University to investigate the therapeutic potential of microRNAs in the treatment of diabetes. Read more
Mechanisms of Cancer Stem Cell Survival, Metastasis Formation and Immune Evasion in Cancer
Recent research suggests that cancer cells within a tumour represent a highly heterogeneous cell population. In particular many tumours contain small percentage of cells that share several characteristics with stem cells. Read more
The epigenomic, transcriptional and diagnostic architecture of neurodevelopmental disorders caused by exposure to maternal infection
A fundamental unknown in understanding mechanisms of disease, and therefore improving therapy, is how stressors experienced during critical developmental periods influence the genesis or ‘programming’ of adult disease (Estes & McAllister 2016). Read more
