Sex and Reproduction During the Evolution of Apes
. Reproduction is the prime imperative for species and even helps define life itself. For humans, reproductive biology, mating behaviours, and parenting overlap in profound and complex ways throughout our lives. Read more
Multi-objective evolutionary framework for autocurricula development in multiagent systems [Self Funded Students Only]
About the Project. AI has made remarkable progress attempting to solve a range of real-life problems with artificial neural networks (ANN) and the technique of reinforcement learning (RL). Read more
Research opportunities in the Department of Archaeology
The Department of Archaeology at York is a vibrant research community and a centre of excellent research-led teaching. Read more
Using synthetic biology to understand the evolution of antibiotic resistance
Imagine an architect, tasked with converting an old stadium into a building with a different function, without demolishing it. Read more
Human-based approaches to innovation in cybersecurity using AI [Self Funded Students Only]
The ability to innovate is a precious commodity that humans are well-disposed to accomplishing. Read more

The earliest occupation of the Midlands: missing humans, or missing the artefacts?
The very earliest occupations of Britain, dating back hundreds of thousands of years, are best represented by the stone artefacts found on and within surviving fragments of ‘Ice Age’ landscapes. Read more
Tracking the evolution, spread and key drivers of zoonotic diseases
Research Group:
Edinburgh Infectious Diseases
Project offered for Ker Memorial PhD Studentship in Infectious Diseases. Highly pathogenic avian influenza viruses (HPAIV) present a significant threat to public health, food security, and the poultry industry. Read more
A multidisciplinary approach to understanding the evolution of human healthcare networks
Human healthcare networks are unique in the animal kingdom. While many species provide care to kin (genetic relatives), humans are the only species which also provide widespread, cooperative care to strangers (i.e., doctors, nurses). Read more
Characterization of the evolution of DNA methylation readers across eukaryotes
Supervisors: Dr Alexandre de Mendoza Soler and Dr Paul Hurd. Funding. ERC Starting Grant. Deadline: 15th June 2023. Read more
Cell biology and evolution of cancer metastasis
We are interested in the spread of cancer, a process called metastasis. Metastasis is responsible for the majority of cancer deaths and there are currently no effective treatments to stop this process. Read more

How do evolutionary changes in innate immune genes influence the carriage of zoonotic pathogen
Description. Zoonotic pathogens, such as COVID-19, reside in animal hosts before jumping species to infect humans. How diversity in host immune genes across species impact upon pathogen carriage are poorly understood. Read more
