Functional coronary artery disease genetics - defining the function of new causal atherosclerosis genes from CAD GWAS loci using in vitro and in vivo models
Despite significant advancements in its treatment coronary artery disease is the leading cause of death in both the UK and world-wide, accounting for over 66,000 deaths in the UK each year. Read more
Biopharmaceutics tools for Long Acting Injectables
The University of Bath is inviting applications for the following PhD project commencing in October 2022. Supervisory Team. Dr Nikoletta Fotaki. Read more
Gene correlation network showing differences in gene expression of effector T cells derived from the bone marrow or peripheral tissues affected by GVHD.
Our group is interested in developing novel immunotherapeutic approaches for leukaemia. Clinical approaches currently used include allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation, chimeric antigen receptor T cell therapy and immune checkpoint inhibitors. Read more

The functions of the Class II Pi3-kinase signals in vivo
Phosphoinositide lipids (PIPs) play critical roles in development and the homeostasis of adult tissues and their dysfunction has been linked to major human diseases such as cancer, diabetes, myopathies and neuropathies. Read more
Transcriptional control of vascular development
Sprouting of new capillaries from pre-existing vessels (angiogenesis) promotes the formation of almost all blood vessels during development, growth and tissue regeneration. Read more
4-year PhD Studentship: Nanoparticle Gene Therapy for Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease
Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is the most frequent Mendelian inherited kidney disease (prevalence 1/1000). Read more
EASTBIO: Non-invasive Mapping of Oxygen Extraction Fraction in Human: Development of Novel Multi-Parametric Magnetic Resonance Relaxometry Imaging Methods
Supervisors. Dr Jiabao He. - University of Aberdeen, Institute of Medical Sciences, School of Medicine, Medical Sciences and Nutrition - Jiabao.He@abdn.ac.uk. Read more
MSc by Research: Development of tools suited for the in vivo identification and study of protein complexes in Phytophthora capsici, required for infection
Broad host range pathogens, such as the oomycete pathogen Phytophthora capsici, can cause significant disease on a wide range of plants. Read more
Inter- and intra-cellular signalling in the development of fibrosis in the hypertensive heart
Project Overview. Heart failure is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. In terms of volume, the normal heart is composed mostly of terminally-differentiated contractile cells (cardiomyocytes), responsible for the pump action of the heart. Read more
4-year PhD Studentship: Investigating the regulation of MMP-dependent glycocalyx damage to refine therapeutic targets
Each component of the glomerular filtration barrier (GFB) plays a crucial part. The endothelial glycocalyx (eGlx), a surface covering on the luminal surface of glomerular endothelial cells (GEnC), forms the first layer. Read more
PHD position in aquatic photosynthesis: time-resolved spectroscopy and structural biology
Are you interested to learn the secrets of the aquatic world? This project aims to resolve photoregulation in aquatic photosynthesis using time-resolved spectroscopy and structural biology. Read more
Role of lipids in regulating in vivo chemotaxis
Aberrant cell migration is a critical factor in the progression of many diseases including cancer and atherosclerosis. Read more
Preferential Gq signalling in diabetes: an electrical switch in incretin action and in diabetes progression?
The progression of type 2 diabetes (T2D) involves development of insulin resistance that is frequently associated with obesity and that is initially compensated by increased insulin secretion from pancreatic β-cells. Read more
Defining the role of WT1 in cellular and molecular processes during gastrulation, in embryos and gastruloids
In an ageing population, injury and degenerative processes lead to increased pressure on the NHS due to demand on treatments. Read more
