Identifying the critical downstream targets of sustained ROS production during caudal fin and heart regeneration in zebrafish
A primary goal in regenerative medicine is to identify and implement novel treatments aimed at improving our ability to regenerate injured, diseased or aged tissues and organs, including the heart. Read more
Using zebrafish models to investigate cerebral arteriovenous malformations
Cerebral Arteriovenous Malformations (cAVM) relate to a spectrum of conditions associated with blood vessel abnormalities of the brain [1]. Read more
Fin, heart and muscle regeneration in zebrafish
The zebrafish research group of Prof. Anna Jazwinska at the Department of Biology, University of Fribourg, Switzerland. is looking for a motivated PhD student with an interest in. Read more
Transcriptional control of vascular development
Sprouting of new capillaries from pre-existing vessels (angiogenesis) promotes the formation of almost all blood vessels during development, growth and tissue regeneration. Read more
Robustness of the molecular programme that drives cellular differentiation during embryonic blood cell development
Our body consists of numerous cell types that all fulfil very specific functions. Cellular differentiation is the process by which these cells arise from immature precursor cells during embryogenesis. Read more
Identification of the molecular pathways that guide zebrafish regeneration
The study of regenerative biology aims to elucidate the innate ability of organisms to replace tissues or organs after they have been removed or damaged. Read more

Systems approach to dissecting the processes underlying skeletal muscle fibre formation
This project is available through the MIBTP programme. The successful applicant will join the MIBTP cohort and will take part in all of the training offered by the programme. For further details. Read more
Epitranscriptomic mechanisms in the maternal to zygotic transition of vertebrate embryos
Research Group:
BBSRC MIBTP
Most mRNAs contain modified nucleotides in mRNA, but we know very little about their function (Haussmann et al, 2016, Dezi et al, 2016, Roignant and Soller, 2017). Read more

Investigation of an uncharacterised, embryonically lethal gene in immune cell development
This project is available through the MIBTP programme. The successful applicant will join the MIBTP cohort and will take part in all of the training offered by the programme. Read more
Last chance to apply
Identifying mechanisms of cell extrusions during tissue development
Tissues are shaped by complex cellular processes including cell divisions, extrusions, movements, shape changes and differentiation. Read more
Gene regulation in early vertebrate development
A PhD studentship is available to work in the laboratory of Dr. Fiona Wardle (www.kcl.ac.uk/research/profile/wardle-group) in the Randall Centre for Cell and Molecular Biophysics, King’s College London. Read more
Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) - Sample-adaptive smart microscopy (Cairn Research and University of Glasgow)
Research Group:
CDT in Applied Photonics
3D timelapse microscope imaging of biological samples is revolutionising biology, unlocking the ability to directly witness events such as cell-cell interactions whose location in time and space cannot be predicted in advance. Read more
Evolution of vertebrate blood vessels
The blood vessels are the core elements of the circulatory system of animals, and their malfunction is related to most human diseases including cancer and heart attacks. Read more

A new bioconjugation agent for RNA analysis.
This project is available through the MIBTP programme. The successful applicant will join the MIBTP cohort and will take part in all of the training offered by the programme. Read more
MSc by Research: The role of the CCR4-NOT complex in somite segmentation
During early embryogenesis the somites are formed during a process called segmentation. The somites will go on to form the bones and muscles of the skeleton. Read more
