QUADRAT DTP: The effects of anthropogenic noise on marine mammals: a meta-analysis

This fully funded, 42-month PhD project is part of the QUADRAT Doctoral Training Partnership. Anthropogenically driven environmental changes affect our planet at an unprecedented scale and are considered to be a critical threat to biodiversity. Read more

Is RNA interference a relevant antiviral mechanism in mammals?

  Research Group: Institute of Immunology & Infection Research
This proposal aims to advance our knowledge of the basic mechanisms that allow cells to defend from viruses. In mammals, a powerful protein-based response orchestrated by type-I interferons, acts as the first layer of defence against viruses. Read more

Fully Funded NERC ACCE DTP ARCHAEOLOGY project: Using Ancient DNA to explore the effects of land use change on small mammals

Lead supervisor. Dr Sophy Charlton (University of York Department of ARCHAEOLOGY). Co-supervisors. Dr David Orton (University of York Department of ARCHAEOLOGY) Dr Selina Brace (NHM) Prof Love Dalén (Stockholm University Department of Zoology). Read more

NERC ACCE Doctoral Training Partnership: The benefits of sociability in group-living small mammals

The ACCE DTP is committed to recruiting extraordinary future scientists regardless of age, disability, ethnicity, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, faith or religious belief, pregnancy or maternity, parental or caring responsibilities or career pathway to date. Read more

Low energy passive acoustic detection of marine mammals

There is a clear need for technology to detect the presence of marine mammals, especially dolphins, porpoises and whales in order to support marine ecology studies and to mitigate the impact of offshore construction work. Read more

NERC ACCE Doctoral Training Partnership: Investigating the axial underpinnings of mammalian locomotor and ecological diversity

The ACCE DTP is committed to recruiting extraordinary future scientists regardless of age, disability, ethnicity, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, faith or religious belief, pregnancy or maternity, parental or caring responsibilities or career pathway to date. Read more

Comparative Thanatology: evolutionary drivers and proximate mechanisms

Applications are invited for a fully-funded three year PhD to commence in October 2024. The PhD will be based in the Department of Psychology’s Centre of Comparative and Evolutionary Psychology, within the Faculty of Science and Health, and will be supervised by Dr Leanne Proops, Dr Teresa Romero and Dr Kate Lewis.

The Environmental Drivers of DNA methylation and Senescence: An Experimental Test in Wild Mice

  Research Group: Institute of Ecology & Evolution
Summary. Why do we senesce? Lifestyle appears to accelerate the ageing process in humans, but we know much less about the stressors that cause age-related declines in wild animals. Read more
