immunology PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships
We have 111 immunology PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships
Granulopoiesis: chromatin topology and associated functions
Granulopoiesis, the generation of new neutrophilic granulocytes, is crucial to health. During healthy neutrophil development its nucleus goes through dramatic morphological changes, from a simple round nucleus to a multi-segmented, lobulated nucleus. Read more

Targeting RNA modification for modulation of immune cell function
Academic Supervisor. Claudia Ribeiro. Industrial Partner. Storm Therapeutics. The Babraham Research Campus (BRC) is pleased to announce that it has available a number of studentships from its BBSRC Collaborative Training Partnership (CTP) Award to start in October 2025. Read more
Understanding how to target the T cell compartment within related brain tumours
T cell-based immunotherapy has revolutionised the treatment of many different types of cancer. However, to date, these treatments have not been successful or widely used for the treatment of brain tumours. Read more
PhD position in antiviral immunity and vaccinology (m/f/d)
The Hospital of the University of Munich, Germany, is one of the largest and most competitive university hospitals in Germany and Europe. Read more
Diagnostics for FMF patients and carrier survival in pandemics
Background. Familial Mediterranean Fever (FMF) is a rare inherited genetic disease where patients acquire a mutation on the pyrin gene leading to excessive inflammasome activation and excessive inflammation. Read more
Identification and characterization of disease-specific subsets of antigen-presenting cells (APC) in inflammatory arthritis
Inflammatory arthritis (IA) can result from non-autoimmune diseases (like crystal arthritis) and from autoimmune diseases like rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and spondyloarthropathies. Read more
Defining the protective effects of a commensal bacterial strain in skin barrier function and protection from disease
Maintaining a healthy skin barrier is vital for our health. In response to skin wounding, we have a well-orchestrated immune response that heals the breach. Read more
(MCRC Clinical) Microenvironment sensing and mechano-regulation of gene expression in non-small cell lung cancer
Increasing early diagnosis is one of the biggest steps towards improving health outcomes and reducing both the economic and patient impacts of cancer. Read more
Triple Negative Breast cancer control of the immune tumour microenvironment in metastasis
Metastasis, the spread of cancer to secondary organs, accounts for approximately 90% of cancer-related deaths mainly due to resistance to conventional treatments and organ failure. Read more
Determining the role of the adaptive immune system in controlling breast cancer metastasis and evolution.
Immune responses involve a balanced interplay between the evolution of a target alongside the evolution of the immune system. The immune system prevents cancer by evolving to recognise and eliminate cancer cells. Read more
Investigating the Immune and Inflammatory Response to Traumatic Injury
We are seeking talented, motivated students with a passion for research in the field of immunology and traumatic injury to join the trauma research team lead by Dr Jon Hazeldine (https://www.birmingham.ac.uk/staff/profiles/inflammation-ageing/hazeldine-jon.aspx). Read more
(MRC DTP) Identifying cellular and molecular mechanisms during coinfection with respiratory pathogens
Aspergillus fumigatus (Af), a critical human fungal pathogen according to the WHO, annually causes >20 million pulmonary infections with four million having life threatening disease. Read more
(MRC DTP) Dissecting immune networks in barrier tissues and beyond
The immune system maintains tissue health within a variety of tissues and organs throughout the body, from mucosal barrier sites (such as the oral cavity, gut and lung) to the membranes that line the brain (meninges). Read more
