  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.

  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.

  PhD in Infection & Immunity - Modifying human cytomegaloviruses to drive expansion of effector natural killer and cytotoxic T cells
Cardiff University Cardiff School of Medicine
  Dr E Wang, Dr R Stanton
Application Deadline: 27 February 2019
Natural Killer (NK) cells and CD8+ cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) are immune cells known to kill cancerous and virus-infected cells and are being used to treat forms of these diseases.

  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.

  Cross-presentation of exogenous ROP proteins by antigen presenting cells to MHC class I and class II pathways
University of Oxford Department of Oncology
  Dr S Jiang, Dr N Burgess-Brown
Application Deadline: 11 January 2019
Immunotherapy including therapeutic vaccines provides great hope for cancer treatment. Understanding the mechanisms of antigen presentation is helpful for optimal design of an immunotherapy.

  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.
