Using AI to predict novel interactions at the plant-pathogen interface.

Extracellular interactions between plants and pathogens hold an intriguing molecular battlefield involving many important components of extracellular immunity that remain to be discovered and used for crop protection. Read more

Analysis of pathogen determinants recognized by the hypervariable immune receptor Dscam

Background. To mount an immune response, host organisms must first recognize the pathogen with which they are infected. The first line of defense against pathogen infection in animals is provided through the innate immune response. Read more

PhD Opportunity - Mechanics of multifactorial stress responses in plants – How do abiotic stress signals integrate with pathogen immunity?

'TO APPLY, PLEASE CLICK INSTITUTION WEBSITE'. Outline. Plants have the innate ability to respond to pathogens together with multiple abiotic stress challenges, but such responses often come at a cost to plant productivity and water use. Read more

Funded 4-year PhD Studentship*: Translational control during host-pathogen interaction

Applications are invited for a fully-funded 4-year PhD studentship based in the Department of Pathology at the University of Cambridge under the supervision of Dr Betty Chung starting October 2025. Read more

MRC DiMeN Doctoral Training Partnership: Macrophage reprogramming in response to the clearance of pathogen-induced cell death.

Background. Approximately 0.4% of adult human cells undergo regulated cell death (RCD) daily, primarily through apoptosis. To prevent excessive inflammation, these dead cells must be cleared in an immunologically silent manner—a process known as efferocytosis. Read more

Minimising pathogen colonisation of the gut using diet and specific gut bacteria

Applications are invited for this self-funded 36 Month project within the Rowett Institute at the University of Aberdeen. The human gut contains trillions of microbes, known as the gut microbiota, that are beneficial for our health and provide a barrier to prevent infections by pathogenic bacteria. Read more
