Research Group. Biomedical Research Group. Proposed supervisory team. Dr Grisha Pirianov. Prof Selim Cellek. Theme. Cardiovascular. Read more
Investigating the control and function of macrophage subtypes using Drosophila melanogaster
Supervisor(s). Iwan Evans (Primary Supervisor, IICD) and Martin Zeidler (Second Supervisor, Biosciences). Project details. The phagocytic white blood cells known as macrophages are a highly heterogeneous population of cells. Read more
Regulation of macrophage subsets in healthy and chronic wounds
This project will address the overall aim of characterising macrophage heterogeneity in murine wounds from healthy and chronic wound models (diabetes and ageing). Read more
Harnessing the crosstalk between extracellular matrix stiffness and tissue redox chemistry to modulate the fate of macrophages
We are seeking a highly motivated candidate with strong academic background in immunology, chemistry, biology or related area for a multidisciplinary PhD project focused on development of biomaterials with immune modulatory properties with potential applications in immune therapy and vaccination. Read more
The role of inflammatory cytokines on macrophage cytoskeletal structure and function in diabetes and cardiovasular disease
The . Maelor Academic Unit of Medical & Surgical Sciences (MAUMSS). Read more
Investigating the role of lactate in tuberculosis disease
About the project. We are seeking talented, hard-working and motivated students with a passion for research in Immunology, Metabolism and Infectious diseases to join the team led by Dr Alba Llibre (. Read more
The role of Neuropilins in the modulation of macrophage phenotype during heart regeneration
Background, aims and objectives. An opportunity has arisen for a 3-year PhD studentship within the Department of Comparative Biomedical Sciences at the Royal Veterinary College funded by the Academy of Medical Sciences and the RVC. Read more
Mutation dynamics in intramacrophage bacteria: How a host-microbe interaction affects antimicrobial resistance
Mutations are fundamental for the evolution of all organisms and adaptation to their environment. They emerge due to replication errors, oxidative stress or various mutagenic stressors. Read more
Meals for macrophages – investigating how macrophages engulf and process dying cells in vivo
Supervisors. Iwan Evans (primary supervisor); Phil Elks and Simon Johnston (secondary supervisors). Project details. A critical role for phagocytic cells such as macrophages is the engulfment and subsequent degradation of dying cells and debris. Read more
Investigating the potential of novel mimetic molecules (Toll-like receptor 4 antagonists) to modulate the microphage polarisation
Research Group:
Biomedical Research Group
Research Group. Biomedical Research Group. Proposed supervisory team. Dr Grisha Pirianov. Dr Nicholas Pugh. Theme. Cardiovascular. Read more
Helminth products as macrophage “trainers”: a novel therapeutic tool for the treatment of immune mediated diseases
The innate immune system can display characteristics of immunological memory. This phenomenon, termed “trained immunity”, refers to the long-term functional reprogramming of innate immune cells after the encounter with infectious or non-infectious agents that influences their capacity to respond to a secondary stimulus.

Lipid droplets and the regulation of inflammation by macrophages
Lipid droplets are important intracellular particles that comprise neutral lipids surrounded by a phospholipid monolayer. They are a major reservoir for lipids that are then provided for energy, membrane biosynthesis and for signalling intermediates. Read more
How does the human fungal pathogen, Candida albicans, exploit its metabolic flexibility to enhance its virulence?
Project offered for Ker Memorial PhD Studnetship in Infectious Diseases. Fungal pathogens kill over a million people every year. The most common human fungal pathogen is Candida albicans, a WHO-priority target. Read more
Identifying focal points and functional relevance of host-microbe communication during tissue injury and repair
Research Group:
Edinburgh Infectious Diseases
Project offered for Ker Memorial PhD Studentship in Infectious Diseases. Tissue repair is critical for a eukaryotic host to return to homeostasis following acute injuries. Read more
The impact of cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) modulators on immune cell function following microbial infection
This fully funded, 4-year PhD project is funded by The Chloe Fund studentship that was set up in memory of Chloe whose life was affected by cystic fibrosis. Read more
