  Exploiting Nanopore sequencing for genome sequencing
University of Nottingham School of Life Sciences
  Dr M Loose
Applications accepted all year round
We are exploiting the latest generation Nanopore sequencing approaches to sequence large genomes. Nanopore sequencing is low cost, easy to use and can generate read lengths limited only by the ability to generate suitable input material.

  Real time sequencing for assembly of complex genomic regions using selective sequencing
University of Nottingham School of Life Sciences
  Dr M Loose
Applications accepted all year round
Sequencing technology has advanced rapidly in the last 15 years. The advent of nanopore sequencing introduces truly portable, hand-held sequencing devices which have now been used in every imaginable location from the deep sea to the international space station.

  Combating Illegal Trade in Animal Products by Rapid On-Site DNA Sequencing
University of Leicester Department of Genetics and Genome Biology
  Prof M A Jobling, Dr C A May
Application Deadline: 21 January 2019
Illegal trading in animal products is commonplace, widespread and diverse, ranging from trafficking high-value, CITES-protected, endangered species between countries, fraudulent misidentification of by-catch fish filleted at sea (estimated at ~25%), through to substitution of low-value meat from one species into foodstuffs advertised as containing another (e.g.

  A comprehensively analysis of microorganisms and viruses from ancient samples using minion sequencing techniques
Max Planck Society Max Planck Institute for the Science of Human History
  Prof M Marz
Application Deadline: 31 January 2019
In current metagenomic samples we are able to assign only up to 10% of the microorganisms, most of them being bacteria. This number drops significantly when investigating additionally viruses in especially ancient samples.

  (BBSRC DTP CASE) Native Mass Spectrometry approaches for Electron and Photon mediated Top Down Sequencing of Biotherapeutics
University of Manchester School of Chemistry
  Prof P Barran, Dr B Bellina
Application Deadline: 31 January 2019
In this project we propose to develop electron and photon mediated top-down sequencing methods to analyse recombinant biological therapeutics including monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) and adeno-associated viral (AAV) vectors.

  Genome and transcriptome sequencing and functional analysis to find new mutation types in patients with inherited blindness
University of Leeds Faculty of Medicine and Health
  Prof C Inglehearn
Applications accepted all year round
Human inherited retinal dystrophies (IRDs) result from mutations in over 200 different genes, many of them first implicated by the Leeds Vision Research Group (eg Panagiotou E et al 2017, AJHG 100:960-968; El-Asrag M et al 2015, 96:948-54).

  Using massively-paralleled sequencing to find the cause of inherited conditions that affect the front of the eye
University of Leeds Faculty of Medicine and Health
  Dr M Ali, Prof C Inglehearn
Applications accepted all year round
Eye diseases are a common cause of human disability and many of them are inherited. These include congenital as well as adult-onset conditions and diseases of ageing, and may involve abnormalities at the back of the eye or the anterior eye structures.

  Cave exploration: shedding light on organic sulfur cycling in a terrestrial underground chemosynthetic
University of Warwick School of Life Sciences
  Research Group: CENTA - Central England NERC Training Alliance
  Dr H Schaefer, Dr Y Chen
Application Deadline: 21 January 2019
Project Highlights. Investigate the organic sulfur cycle of a closed cave ecosystem based on chemosynthesis. Apply stable isotope and metagenomics approaches to characterise uncultivated bacteria.
