Beyond AlphaFold: Experimental and computational folding of a de novo membrane protein

University of Bristol School of Biochemistry

It has been suggested that the advent of AlphaFold has now “solved the protein folding problem”. In fact, understanding the precise steps that a protein must take in order to adopt a specific, functional threedimensional fold remains a very active area of research. Read more

Funded PhD SWBio DTP- Transient activation of herbicide resistance circuits via sugar-based nanomaterials in crops

University of Bristol School of Biological Sciences

Herbicide resistant weeds are a significant and growing agricultural problem. This is illustrated by the problems currently faced by famers when dealing with herbicide resistant blackgrass, which currently costs the UK nearly £400 million with 800,000 tonnes of lost harvest each year. Read more

Funded PhD SWBio DTP- Grow fast, die young: coordination of plant stem elongation and leaf senescence

University of Bristol School of Biological Sciences

Sustainably enhancing the quality and shelf-life of fresh produce is a major objective for the horticulture industry. This can be achieved by suppressing excessive stem elongation and delaying senescence-induced chlorophyll breakdown. Read more

Funded PhD SWBio DTP- Quantifying the impact of exposure to multiple anthropogenic stressors on bumblebee health

University of Bristol School of Biological Sciences

Bumblebees are vital pollinators of both crops and wildflowers, however many species are in decline. The drivers of these declines are multifaceted, but bumblebees are exposed to a plethora of anthropogenic stressors. Read more

Funded PhD SWBio DTP- Why do plant organelles move? Generation and application of novel tools to study organelle dynamics in plants

University of Bristol School of Biological Sciences

The growing global population requires the development of novel strategies to sustainably increase food production. Organelle movement is dynamic and linked to changes in cell size, plant biomass and in response to factors which affect food production such as pathogens (Perico and Sparkes, New Phytol. Read more

Funded PhD SWBio DTP- Coral venom in the era of climate change

University of Bristol School of Biological Sciences

Due to the global climate change leading to a rise in sea water temperatures, reef building corals tend to lose endosymbionts (coral bleaching) and eventually die. Read more

Funded PhD SWBio DTP- Tracing and shaping the evolutionary paths of engineered biology

University of Bristol School of Biological Sciences

No biological system can avoid evolution, yet most engineered biology to date completely overlooks its impact. This project aims to address this failing by helping us better understand how design choices when implementing synthetic genetic circuits affect the routes that evolution takes once the system is deployed.

Funded PhD SWBio DTP- When to grow up? The spatiotemporal regulation of shoot maturation in plants

University of Bristol School of Biological Sciences

How individuals mature throughout a life-cycle is a key question in developmental biology. Maturation occurs by two mechanisms. discrete transitions between different developmental stages and a continuous aging process. Read more
