  PhD In Infection & Immunity - Profiling superantigen-induced immunosupression of unconventional T cells during severe sepsis
Cardiff University Cardiff School of Medicine
  Dr J McLaren, Prof M Eberl, Prof D Price
Application Deadline: 27 February 2019
Sepsis is a life-threatening illness that is triggered by an exaggerated immune response to severe infection. This unbalanced reaction induces hyperinflammation, shock and organ dysfunction that forms the primary cause of death in hospitalised patients.

  MRC DiMeN Doctoral Training Partnership: Harnessing T cells to target brain metastases
University of Leeds MRC DiMeN Doctoral Training Partnership
  Dr M Lorger, Dr R Salmond, Prof J Newton-Bishop
Application Deadline: 21 January 2019
An MRC-funded PhD student position is available to explore how T cells can be harnessed to enhance the efficacy of immune checkpoint inhibitors in melanoma brain metastases.

  Delineating transcriptional pathways that limit anti-cancer T cell function
Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre Sir Peter MacCallum Department of Oncology, University of Melbourne
  Dr I Parish
Applications accepted all year round
During cancer growth, cytotoxic T cells that would normally kill cancer cells lose their function in a process called exhaustion.

  Targeting The Thymus To Improve Immune Recovery Following Stem Cell Transplantation For Cancer Treatment
University of Birmingham Institute of Immunology and Immunotherapy
  Prof G Anderson, Dr W Jenkinson
Applications accepted all year round
Background. The treatment of cancer frequently requires the transplantation of bone marrow to regenerate the immune system that is damaged following ablative therapy.

  Role of vitamin D in neuroinflammation
University of Edinburgh College of Medicine and Veterinary Medicine
  Research Group: Centre for Clinical Brain Sciences
  Dr D Sieger, Dr A Astier
Application Deadline: 7 February 2019
T cells play a central role in the inflammation occurring in multiple sclerosis (MS), and migration of activated T cells into the CNS is key to MS pathogenesis.

  Novel microscopy approaches for investigating relation between the spatio-temporal dynamics of actin filaments and Ca2+ response patterns during T-cell activation
University of Oxford Kennedy Institute of Rheumatology
  Dr M Fritzsche, Prof M Dustin
Application Deadline: 11 January 2019
A pivotal event promoting adaptive immune responses is binding of antigens to antigen receptors and subsequent actin cytoskeleton reorganisations resulting in receptor microcluster (MC) formation, intracellular signalling, and ultimately immunological synapse (IS) formation.

  Control of T cell responses by accessory receptors
University of Oxford Sir William Dunn School of Pathology
  Dr O Dushek
Application Deadline: 11 January 2019
T cells orchestrate immune responses crucial for the elimination of infections and cancers. They do this by initiating a diverse set of effector responses when their T cell surface receptors (TCRs) recognize these threats.

  Defining targets modulating anti-tumour immune effectors in vivo
Cancer Research UK Beatson Institute Cell Biology of Cancer
  Dr E Roberts
Application Deadline: 11 January 2019
The Cancer Research UK Beatson Institute in Glasgow is one of the world-leading centres for cancer research. The Institute provides an outstanding research environment, underpinned by state-of-the-art core services and advanced technologies with special emphasis on imaging, metabolomics and in vivo models of cancer.

  Function of a novel ‘eat-me’ signal on HIV-1-infected and dying cells
University of Oxford Sir William Dunn School of Pathology
  Prof Q Sattentau
Application Deadline: 11 January 2019
Macrophages are cells of the innate immune system that have the essential functions of eliminating infectious agents, removing infected, dying and dead cells, and inducing, regulating and resolving inflammation.

Type/Funding
  Characterization of clonal evolution of T-cell lymphoma
University of Cambridge Department of Pathology
  Prof M Q Du
Application Deadline: 3 January 2019
It has long been assumed that malignant T-cell lymphoma is a monoclonal disease. i.e. the tumour grows and expands from a single cell.
