hair PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships
We have 20 hair PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships
Modelling hair lubrication in the presence of additives
This project is sponsored by the Institute of Chemical Biology EPSRC Centre for Doctoral Training and Procter & Gamble. This is a 3-year PhD project, available for immediate start and open to Home candidates only. Read more
Establishing TimeTeller as a tool for human chronotyping
Human physiology is governed by the circadian clock, inducing rhythms in key pathways over the 24-day. For example, sleep-wake cycles as well as rhythms in hormones and physiological parameters such as heart rate, blood pressure or blood glucose homeostasis are modulated by the circadian clock.

CASE Project: Use of physiologically relevant in vitro cell models for the development of biology-driven approaches to enhance the efficacy of scalp and limb cooling technologies
This project will be undertaken in collaboration with Paxman Coolers Ltd and will involve a minimum 3-month placement based at the Industry Partner's premises. Read more
EASTBIO: Mathematical theories for pattern formation in developing embryos
This fully funded, 4-year PhD project is part of a competition funded by the BBSRC EASTBIO Doctoral Training Partnership. We are seeking a talented, creative, and friendly individual to join our interdisciplinary team. Read more
EASTBIO: The proteome social network: Characterizing cellular protein interaction networks using advanced mass spectrometry and deep learning
Proteins are building blocks of the body and the engines of life. They can be structural, like hair and skin, or mechanical, like machines that perform chemical transformations and tasks within cells. Read more
An investigation of endocrine-disrupting chemicals in a high fish-eating population and its association with reproductive health
Research Group:
Biomedical Sciences
Exposure to EDCs have significantly increased in recent years and may pose health risks when consumed as part of the diet. EDCs are ubiquitous and contact with these chemicals can occur through air, diet, skin and water. Read more
Structural biomarkers of prostate cancer detected in remote tissue for diagnostics
Research Group:
Biomedical Sciences
Cancer is the leading cause of death worldwide, accounting for nearly 1 in 6 deaths [WHO,2022]. Many cancers can be cured or more effectively treated if detected early. Read more
York YBDTP project: Genetic and developmental basis of transparency in butterflies
Lead supervisor: Prof K Dasmahapatra. Co-supervisors: Dr Daphne Ezer, Dr Nicola Nadeau, University of Sheffield and Dr Caroline Bacquet, Universidad Regional Amazónica IKIAM (Ecuador). Read more
Artificial Optical Nervous System
The aim of this project is to establish a new class of sensing system that is capable of mapping strain distribution at thousands of points using a single strand of optical fibre thinner than a human hair. Read more
Artificial Optical Nervous System
The study of the mechanical properties of any large, complex structures such as a space launch vehicle or Earth’s crust relies on a large array of sophisticated and, often, expensive sensors. Read more
AI and Machine Learning in Human Genetics
In recent years, the field of human genetics has grown immensely in terms of data production and analysis, now routinely analysing data from thousands of people over millions of genetic markers [1] and thousands of variables [2]. Read more
Genetic and developmental basis of transparency in butterflies
The wings of most butterflies and moths are covered in tile-like scales which make them opaque, with scale pigmentation responsible for their intricate colourful patterns. Read more
Understanding centriole assembly in diverse human cells using advanced imaging and genomics
Centrioles are microtubule-based structures that form two different important cellular organelles. centrosomes and cilia. Centrosomes organise the microtubule cytoskeleton, and consequently have critical roles in cell division and cell polarity. Read more
Deciphering the molecular mechanisms of mechanosensing in stem cell homeostasis and differentiation.
Background. Stem cells have an essential role in homeostasis, repair, and regeneration of a tissue or organ. The adult skin is home to largest collection of multipotent stem cells, which are immature cells with unlimited ability to self-renew and capacity to differentiate into different skin cell lineages.
