immunology PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships
We have 98 immunology PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships
Mechanical force matters in T-cell activation
In the last 20 years there has been an emerging recognition that tumours modulate their mechanics to evade the human immune system (1). Read more
Harnessing human genomic, transcriptomic and proteomic data to identify novel therapeutic targets
Supporting human genetic data for novel therapeutic targets has been shown to double the success rate for subsequent clinical translation. Read more
New pattern-recognition receptor signalling modalities in inflammation
Pattern recognition receptors (PRR) such as toll-like receptors (TLR) and C-type lectins (CLR) are critical in shaping tissue-specific inflammatory responses, including inflammasome priming. Read more
Resident memory B cell responses in the lung; immunity against pulmonary pathogens
Immunological memory of antibody responses is critical for the ability of the host to cope with secondary infections and is the basis for the development of most current vaccines. Read more
Investigating the role of neutrophil subsets in vascular inflammation
Vascular pathologies underline devastating diseases ranging from auto-immune vasculitis to the recent COVID-19 pandemic (1). Read more
Single-molecule and whole transcriptome studies of the dynamic in vivo mRNA structures in immunological memory
About the Project. The Babraham Institute is a world-leader in fundamental biological research investigating the systems that underpin development and healthy ageing. Read more
Improving chemical and immunological assessment to drive safer development of the new breed of drugs: PROTACS
Proteolysis-targeting chimeras (PROTACs) are a new class of drugs with immense potential across multiple therapeutic areas in drug development. Read more
12 fully funded Ph.D. positions at the Cologne Graduate School of Ageing Research
The Cologne Graduate School of Ageing Research (CGA) in Germany is a joint venture of the University of Excellence Cluster on Stress Responses in Aging-Associated Diseases (CECAD), the University and University Hospital Cologne, the Max Planck Institute for Biology of Ageing and the Max Planck Institute for Metabolism Research. Read more
Predicting the Evolution of Influenza and SARS-CoV-2 Viruses
Our research focus is to design and develop analytical, computational, and mathematical methods to understand the fundamental processes that govern the evolution of influenza and SARS-CoV-2 viruses. Read more
Investigating the neuro-stromal-immune interactions in inflammageing and osteoarthritis.
Ageing is associated with a higher risk of developing multiple chronic conditions (multimorbidity) including osteoarthritis. Age-associated chronic low-grade inflammation (inflammageing) is a hallmark of osteoarthritis. Read more
Investigating flavivirus biogenesis and immune evasion mechanisms
This project focuses on how (+)RNA viruses, particularly Dengue and Zika viruses assemble, spread, and evade host immune responses. Read more
Cancer Neuroscience: Investigating the impact of non-CNS tumours on neuronal plasticity in the brain
To apply, please contact Dr Graham Sheridan at Graham.Sheridan@nottingham.ac.uk. Cancer is one of the leading causes of death worldwide, resulting in approximately 18 million new cases and 10 million deaths each year. Read more
Leveraging novel automated diagnostic pathways with augmented precision medicine approaches for the early detection and risk stratification of liver disease
Liver disease represents one of the fastest-growing causes of morbidity and mortality in the world. The principle aetiological variants are contained within the new nomenclature of steatotic liver disease (SLD). Read more
Molecular mechanisms and targeted therapy for spinocerebellar ataxia [self-funded opportunity]
The Centre for Physical Activity and Life Sciences at the University of Northampton is pleased to offer a self-funded PhD opportunity. Read more
Vaccine development for important spirochaetal diseases of cattle.
*Bovine digital dermatitis (DD) is a severe, infectious, foot skin disease affecting cattle worldwide. This disease causes severe pain resulting in ruminant lameness and impacts animal welfare. Read more
