Developing novel insecticidal proteins for crop protection
Project Overview. Undertake a cutting-edge PhD research project at the UoY’s Centre for Novel Agricultural Products (CNAP), focused on addressing one of the most pressing challenges in agriculture. Read more
CASE Project: Revolutionising Early Detection of Crop Pathogenesis using AI-based analysis of digital Imagery.
This project will be undertaken in collaboration with Data Dynamics Ltd and includes a minimum 3-month placement based at the Industry Partner's premises. Read more
Decoding the Cross-talk Between RNA-binding Proteins, Phosphorylation, and Molecular Chaperones in Post-Transcriptional Gene Regulation in Toxoplasma gondii
This exciting PhD project aims to unravel the fundamental molecular mechanisms controlling gene expression in the protozoan parasite Toxoplasma gondii, an organism of significant importance in veterinary and agricultural biosciences. Read more
Project at Cranfield University: Evaluating suitability of graphitic carbon from methane cracking to improve soil nutrient retention for crop uptake
Methane is a potent greenhouse (GHG) with a half-life shorter than CO. 2. and can oxidise to form CO. 2. Minimising methane emission by converting it to hydrogen and carbon (C) will reduce CO. Read more
Fully Funded PhD Scholarship in Assessment of Low Emission Dairy Systems on Zero Zero Project
Applications are invited from suitably qualified candidates for a full-time funded PhD scholarships starting in March 2025 affiliated to the College of Science & Engineering / School of Biological & Chemical Sciences / Ryan Institute at the University of Galway. Read more
Sand mining in Southeast Asia: Drivers, impacts and sustainable management
The Tropical Rivers Group at the National Institute of Education (NIE), Nanyang Technological University (NTU), invites applications from exceptionally motivated and passionate individuals for a PhD opportunity to advance research on sand mining, one of the most pressing environmental challenges of our time. Read more
Project at Aberystwyth University: Decoding Heat Tolerance At Flowering: Using Multi-omics Approaches to Unlock Crop Resilience
Global warming is creating significant challenges for agriculture, with rising temperatures threatening crop yields worldwide. In Europe, including the UK, the frequency of extremely hot days is predicted to increase dramatically in the coming decades, jeopardizing key crops such as cereals and oilseeds. Read more
Project at Aberystwyth University: AI-mazing Agriculture: Mitigating Seasonality Effects in UK Controlled Environments
Background. Controlled environment (CE) facilities, such as glasshouses, play a vital role in UK agriculture, producing crops year-round and supporting research in plant sciences. Read more
Project at Queen's University Belfast: Biochar Interventions to Improve Soil Health Under Oil Palm : Ensuring Agronomic and Environmental Sustainability of the Fastest Expanding Equatorial Crop
Oil-palm is the most productive oil crop in the world, capable of serving both human food and energy needs. Alarmingly though, land conversion to oil-palm is associated with biodiversity loss, regionally significant fire, toxic-haze and GHG emissions. Read more
Project at Queen's University Belfast: Climate-Friendly Beef: Long-Term Assessment of Methane Inhibitors
Livestock contributes 30% of methane released into the atmosphere, more than any other single source. The UK Committee on Climate Change (2020) has recommended a 64% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions, as necessary, to meet the 2050 targets. Read more
