Characterising mechanisms of mononuclear phagocyte recruitment to the lung and their localisation specific function in respiratory viral infection.
Research Group:
Edinburgh Infectious Diseases
Project offered for Ker Memorial PhD Studentship in Infectious Diseases. Despite upcoming modern vaccine technologies, respiratory viral infections will remain a key healthcare burden for many years, requiring the development of prophylactic interventions for high-risk individuals and therapies.

Generation of human cytomegalovirus-pseudotyped particles and development of systems for the study of viral cell entry mechanisms, neutralizing antibody responses to infection and vaccination, and testing of potential novel therapeutics
Overview. Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) establishes lifelong infections of the host with >60% infected across the globe. In healthy children and adults HCMV produces mild symptoms like influenza or mononucleosis. Read more

MSc by Research: Regulation of T cell function by SIK3 in viral infection
T cells play critical roles in the host response to viral infection. Activated cytotoxic CD8 T cells are able to kill virally infected cells while… Read more
Developing the next generation of broad-spectrum antiviral polymers
Applications are invited for a funded PhD position in the School of Chemistry at the University of Birmingham. The School of Chemistry is keen to achieve a gender and diversity balance across the School and welcomes applicants from all backgrounds. Read more
A new approach to CRISPR-Cas adaptation and the discovery of host accessory-proteins
Bacteria provide many health benefits and eco-environmental services. Although physically simple, they have a sophisticated immune system, CRISPR-Cas. Read more
Developing an AI-driven BCI-based neurofeedback device to treat chronic post-viral fatigue syndrome
The Faculty of Science and Health at the University of Essex is offering one PhD research Scholarship for a student to participate in a joint project with g.tec (gtec.at), NHS, and BT. Read more
Controlling parasitic varroa mites and viral disease in honey bee hives using immunotherapy
One of the greatest threats and costs for the honey bee industry is the parasitic varroa mite and the viral diseases the parasite spreads. Read more
Targeting the interaction between the viral N protein and the host MASP-2 protease to discover novel broad-spectrum therapeutics for coronavirus infections
Highly pathogenic human coronaviruses SARS-CoV, MERS-CoV and SARS-CoV-2 interact with the host MASP-2 serine protease, a key factor in the complement system, through a conserved amino acid sequence in their nucleocapsid (N) proteins. Read more
Oxidised cholesterols as Key Regulators of Host Immunity to Bacterial and Viral Respiratory Infections
Type of project. PhD Research Project. Funded PhD project (students worldwide). Applications accepted all year round. Supervisor. Read more
Phylogeography of foot-and-mouth disease viruses in Equatorial Africa
Research Group:
Edinburgh Infectious Diseases
Project offered for Ker Memorial PhD Studentship in Infectious Diseases. Foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) remains the most important global livestock disease, affecting livestock health, global trade and livelihoods. Read more
Industry-funded PhD Studentship with Exscientia in Structural Bioinformatics
Many viruses, including major human pathogens, encode virus assembly instructions in their genomes. This “assembly code” consists of multiple dispersed sequence/structure motifs called packaging signals, that play key roles in efficient particle formation. Read more
