Investigating skeletal muscle sex differences and the effects of gender transition SSEHS/HFD
Skeletal muscle is important for health maintenance as well as athletic performance. Understanding how skeletal muscle sex differences can impact function will allow us to create more specific interventions such as training programmes. Read more
Can a nutraceutical formulation targeted at the autophagy-lysosomal system improve recovery/regeneration and exercise adaptations in skeletal muscle?
Summary. This project is an exciting new collaboration between Manchester Metropolitan University and Iovate Health Sciences Inc. Read more
Role of primary cilia in skeletal muscle stem cells and muscle regeneration.
Primary cilia are cellular organelles present at the surface of many cell types in vertebrates. In recent years, they have been shown to play essential roles in relaying signalling information from the environment to the cell. Read more
Molecular mechanisms of stem cell function in skeletal muscle ageing
The ability of skeletal muscles to regenerate in response to injury, exercise, growth or disease depends on a population of adult skeletal muscle stem cells. Read more
3D-modeling of human skeletal muscle for in vitro functional assaying (ref: SF22/HLS/APP/SIMOES)
Muscle tissue are found throughout our body and is responsible for mobility, metabolism, and breathing. Read more
Role of circadian rhythm in skeletal ageing
Conditions associated with skeletal ageing including the bone fragility disorder osteoporosis and the joint degenerative condition osteoarthritis affect hundreds of millions of people worldwide. Read more
A platform to investigate multi-tissue crosstalk mediated by exercise induced soluble factors released from human skeletal muscle
The benefits of exercise are well documented, whereby people regularly undertaking some form of physical activity score highly in measures of fitness, health and mental wellbeing. Read more
Characterising novel regulation processes for a structurally important skeletal gene
Cartilage is a specialised tissue, which performs essential roles in the functioning skeletal. Read more
Application of OMICS to study the mechanism and impact of exercise and nutrition on the regulation of skeletal muscle mass, sarcopenia and frailty in older age and comorbidities (e.g., heart failure, dementia, COPD).
University of Liverpool
Institute of Ageing and Chronic Disease Department of Musculoskeletal Biology
This is an Unfunded PhD student position. Students need to pay for tuition fee, bench fee, project costs and consumables. Detailed . Read more
Unravelling the role of P4HB in skeletal development: towards treatment of heritable bone fragility
Osteogenesis Imperfecta (OI) affects 1 in 15-20,000 live births and results in a childhood with frequent fractures, reduced mobility and joint problems. Read more
Multi-organ signalling and diseases. How maintaining skeletal muscle mass impacts the development of liver diseases
Skeletal muscle has a number of roles in the human body beyond locomotion. It has a vital role in controlling the metabolic activity the organism. Read more

MSc By Research: Superabundance of nuclei – what keeps them there and what are they doing?
Muscle spindles are length detectors in skeletal muscles. From their information on muscle length and movement, we always know the precise position of our limbs and head. Read more
Computer Vision with Deep Learning for Human Data Modelling
This project is focused on learning algorithms to model human data such as human images/video, 3D skeletal motion, 3D body/facial surfaces for computer vision tasks such as recognition, prediction and reconstruction. Read more
Investigating the mechanistic effects of nutraceuticals on myoblast proliferation and differentiation for healthy muscle ageing and improved performance
University of Liverpool
Institute of Ageing and Chronic Disease Department of Musculoskeletal Biology
Define the underlying mechanism of action of fertilised egg yolk as a nutritional supplement on muscle using an in vitro model and -omics technologies. Read more
UCL 3-year PhD studentship in molecular / life course epidemiology
