  The effects of mechanical and electrical stimulation on the maturity of tissue engineered skeletal muscle
Loughborough University School of Sport, Exercise and Health Sciences
  Prof M.P. Lewis, Dr A Capel
Applications accepted all year round
Skeletal muscle undergoes hypertrophy in response to exercise and mechanical loading, however although this response is well studied and established, the molecular sensors and signaling pathways which produce this response are not fully elucidated.

  Towards a Tissue Engineered Model of a Joint on a Chip
Loughborough University School of Sport, Exercise and Health Sciences
  Prof M.P. Lewis, Dr A Capel
Applications accepted all year round
This research project aims to develop a multi-tissue platform that integrates many of the structural tissue components of a musculoskeletal joint; bone, tendon, muscle, cartilage and ligament.

  Using a novel 3D co-culture model to define metabolic flux maps of different cancer cell types in response to physical activity
Loughborough University School of Sport, Exercise and Health Sciences
  Dr M Morris, Dr A Islam, Prof M.P. Lewis
Applications accepted all year round
During exercise, and in the presence of sufficient oxygen, glucose is metabolised by muscle cells to produce pyruvate, a metabolic intermediate which is fed into the Kreb’s cycle in the mitochondria to produce large amounts of energy.

  A multi-tissue in vitro model of osteoarthritis
Loughborough University School of Sport, Exercise and Health Sciences
  Prof M.P. Lewis, Dr D Player
Applications accepted all year round
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a joint disorder which is predominantly found in elderly individuals (Lee et al., 2013), but has recently been linked to sports participation at high levels (Vannini et al., 2016).

  Role of cutaneous circadian clocks in gating skin repair
University of Manchester Faculty of Biology, Medicine and Health
  Dr Q-J Meng, Dr M Sherratt
Application Deadline: 31 March 2019
Biological clocks play a key role by temporally controlling the function of whole organisms (including humans) and individual tissues and cells to be aligned with the rhythmic environment.

  Clinical Genetics: De Novo Mutations, Selfish Selection, Mosaicism and Human Disease - developing methods for identification of new genes/molecular pathways subject to selfish selection within the human testis
University of Oxford Radcliffe Department of Medicine
  Prof A Goriely, Prof A Wilkie
Application Deadline: 26 July 2019
De novo mutations (DNMs) are a significant contributor to human disease, affecting ~1:300 new births. We study the mechanisms by which these spontaneous mutations arise in the first instance, concentrating on the tissue where most of them originate, the human testis.
