  Engineering Actinobacteria to enhance natural product biosynthesis
University of Leicester Molecular and Cell Biology
  Dr H O'Hare
Application Deadline: 5 May 2019
The Actinobacteria are important producers of approved drugs (>$1 billion dollars in 2016) but low yields of most natural products are a significant barrier to drug discovery, development and commercialisation.

  Towards new antibacterial drugs to treat infections caused by multidrug-resistant bacteria: identification and characterization of novel natural product antibiotics
University of Leeds Faculty of Biological Sciences
  Research Group: Astbury Centre for Structural Molecular Biology
  Dr A O'Neill
Applications accepted all year round
The World Health Organization (WHO) has declared antimicrobial drug resistance one of the greatest problems currently facing human health, and the situation is especially grave in the case of infections caused by bacterial pathogens.

  Genome mining of novel antimicrobial natural products from new bacterial strains
Aberdeen University Department of Chemistry
  Dr H Deng, Prof M Jaspars
Applications accepted all year round
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is rising to dangerously high levels in all parts of the world. In Europe alone, drug-resistant bacteria are estimated to cause 25,000 deaths annually and cost more than US$1.5 billion every year in healthcare expenses and productivity losses.

  Applying machine learning to ’omics data for accelerated marine antibiotic discovery
University of Strathclyde Strathclyde Institute of Pharmacy & Biomedical Sciences
  Dr Katherine Duncan, Dr P Herron
Application Deadline: 27 March 2019
This project aims to generate comprehensive datasets (bioactivity, genomics, and metabolomics) that will enable us to develop machine learning tools to accelerate the discovery of novel antibiotics.

  Developing an enzymatic toolbox to make complex modified peptides
Aberdeen University Department of Chemistry
  Prof M Jaspars, Dr W Houssen, Dr L Trembleau
Applications accepted all year round
The pharmaceutical industry has identified a major gap in its portfolio. On the one hand, they are excellent at discovering small molecules that act via a lock and key type mechanism.

  Targeting the P2X7 purinergic receptor in melanoma (STOKESLU19SF)
University of East Anglia School of Pharmacy
  Dr L Stokes, Dr C Morris
Application Deadline: 31 May 2019
There is much research into trying to regain control of cell proliferation or cell death (apoptosis) in cancer. Different strategies exist to do this and a multitude of individual receptor targets are being identified in tumour cell lines and primary cells.
