microbial ecology PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

We have 18 microbial ecology PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

PhD Project on Defining Links Between Climate Change, Marine Disease and Food Security

This PhD project will apply cutting edge approaches in molecular microbial ecology to deliver. critical new knowledge on the causes of marine pathogen outbreaks that threaten Australia’s. Read more

Exploring Cellular Metabolism of Dissolved Organic Matter in Rivers, using Environmental Omics

We are seeking a candidate passionate about freshwater ecosystems and microbiology for an exciting PhD opportunity to investigate the interaction between microbes and dissolved organic matter. Read more

Mutations in a skin microbiome

Mutations are fundamental for adaptation, evolution and antimicrobial resistance. Rok’s previous work shows that high-density microbial populations have lower mutation rates, a phenomenon dubbed density-associated mutation rate plasticity (DAMP) (1,2). Read more

Mutations in anaerobic mixed communities

The majority of the human gut microbiome is comprised of anaerobic commensal microbes. Anaerobic commensals are involved in immune responses, absorption of nutrients, drug metabolism, they can protect us against pathogens (1) and can spread antibiotic resistance genes or generate resistance via de novo mutations (2). Read more

Measuring the impact of a whole plant based alternative protein sources on gut health and metabolic function

  Research Group: Biomedical Sciences
A number of aquatic plants, including duckweed (genera Lemna, Wolffia, and Spirodela), are emerging as potential sources of alternative proteins to assist in population level dietary transition to a sustainable, low animal protein healthy diet. Read more

PhD program in Biology at Georgia State University

The PhD program in Biology at Georgia State University offers an advanced, research-intensive experience designed to equip students with the skills and knowledge necessary to excel in academia, industry, and government roles. Read more

Modelling the ecology and evolution of microbial communities

From the human gut to deep-sea sediments, microbial communities – or microbiomes – colonize virtually every habitat on earth. These microbiomes are central to ecosystem functioning and to host health, and therefore it is essential that we understand how and why they change over time. Read more

PhD in Computational Ecology

PhD in Computational Ecology. Why are some ecosystems more resilient to climate change? Can we predict how communities will respond to disturbances? What features of a community ensure stability and coexistence? How do community interactions affect broad-scale biodiversity patterns?. Read more

The role of regulatory evolution in phage ecology

The regulation of genes crucially determines the fitness and function of all organisms. This is particularly relevant for bacteriophages, the viruses that infect bacteria, as they rely on a tightly scheduled program for a successful infection. Read more

Bioinformatics analyses of microbial communities and their genetic contents to understand the transmission dynamics and selection of antimicrobial resistance

Project Overview. Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) is one of the topics that we cannot ignore. Bacterial infections unsuccessfully treated due to AMR claim at least 700 000 lives per year worldwide and are projected to be associated with the deaths of 10 million people per year by 2050. Read more
