Saving the planet through carbon recycling: engineering bacterial capture of gasified waste for bioplastics production
Wider context. Climate change caused by the release of greenhouse gases from fossil fuels and through change of land use threatens life on our planet. Read more
Understanding how electrical communication can regulate metabolic cycles in bacteria biofilms
Project Overview. A biofilm is a robust form of bacteria colony resistant to antibiotics. They have significant impacts on a multitude of industries impacting health and industrial processes such as in food production and water security. Read more
Combining genome-scale metabolic models and multi-omics data for a system level understanding of bacteria
Understanding microbial metabolism is essential for the exploitation of bacteria in a number of different biotechnological applications, the members of the Streptomyces genus being a particularly biotechnologically interesting example (Del Carratore et al., 2022). Read more
Microalgal Carbon Sequestration Towards a Carbon Negative Economy
The increasing CO2 emissions to the atmosphere is a major environmental crisis that is in immediate need of innovative solutions. Read more
Combining Synthetic Biology and Modelling to Understand and Predict Evolution
Mutations, and their effects on organismal fitness, lie at the heart of understanding and predicting evolution. Because of its central role in determining evolutionary outcomes, much experimental and theoretical effort has been put into describing the fitness effects of mutations. Read more
Development of novel lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) for targeted gene delivery to cancer cells
Applications are invited for a self-funded, 3 year full-time PhD project. The PhD will be based in the School of Pharmacy and Biomedical Science and will be supervised by Dr Roja Hadianamrei and Dr Sassan Hafizi. Read more
Computational modelling of insect energy budgets to determine the impact of a changing environmental conditions
We invite applications for a fully-funded, full time PhD studentship to work as part of a multi-disciplinary team (including behavioural biologists and… Read more
Ultra-High Field (7T) Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) Development

Defining a molecular platform for the development of cell selective and cell permeable antibody conjugates
Keywords. Biologics; Drug Delivery; Chemical Biology; Bioanalysis. We are seeking a PhD student to develop next-generation antibody conjugates for cell specific targeting. Read more
Self-Navigating Nanocarriers for Intracellular Protein Delivery
Protein-based therapeutics have shown remarkable success in modulating extracellular targets; however, effective intracellular delivery remains a key challenge in biotherapeutics. Read more
Structure-based design of allosteric modulators for G protein-coupled receptors using molecular modelling and pharmacology experiments
Almost all physiological processes are regulated through the activation of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). It has become widely accepted that most GPCRs possess binding sites spatially distinct from their natural ligand binding site (orthosteric site), termed as allosteric sites. Read more
Faculty of Medicine and Faculty of Dental Medicine
At The Hebrew University of Jerusalem, ranked 77th among the world's 100 leading universities (Shanghai Ranking, 2022), international students can earn a PhD in biomedical sciences at the Faculty of Medicine or the Faculty of Dental Medicine. Read more
Miniaturized fluidized bed bioreactor for bioprocessing
The technology of fluidized beds (FB) allows for the effective contact within multiple phases, thus having been widely applied in varieties of industrial process. Read more
Inorganic chaperones fused to fungal derived chemotherapeutic agents for the treatment of neuroblastoma
This is a unique and cutting-edge PhD research opportunity in the multidisciplinary field of nanotechnology for a student with a strong background in chemistry / biochemistry interested in applying knowledge and developing drugs and drug delivery systems for cancer chemotherapy. Read more
