CR2025_35: Unravelling how mycorrhizal and decomposer fungi in forest soils effect wood and litter decomposition and may mitigate climate change
Forest soils are part of the solutions to global climate change by sequestering carbon (C) to compensate for anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO. Read more
CR2025_07: Secondary metabolic gene evolution in the industrially important fungi
*Please note that this PhD will be hosted at Swansea University*. Where will the next generation of biotherapeutics come from? Why have certain secondary metabolic pathways evolved in some fungi and not in others? How do environmental factors drive secondary metabolic diversity and production?. Read more

EastBio - Functional Understanding of the Rumen Mycobiome via Consortia of Anaerobic Gut Fungi
Funding. This 4-year PhD project is part of a competition funded by EastBio BBSRC Doctoral Training Partnership. This opportunity is open to UK and International students and provides funding to cover tuition fees at the UK rate, plus a stipend to support living costs. Read more
Optimising wheat-fungal symbioses for enhanced nutrition and sustainability
The global challenge of meeting food demand, particularly under the pressures of climate change, necessitates the optimization of crop nutrient uptake while minimizing resource inputs. Read more
Fungal immunity: how do NLR genes allow fungi to navigate the microbial world?
The ability of an organism to distinguish between self and non-self and to mount an effective response is the foundation of a functional immune system. Read more
Exploring bacteria-mycorrhizal fungi-plant interactions regulating nutrient exchange
Plant-microbe interactions underpin crop production. Bacteria and fungi are implicated in improving plant health with recent research showing these microbes synergise to additively increase crop yields. Read more
ACCE+ DLA programme: The role of mycorrhizal fungi in tree species coexistence under global change
Background. Biodiversity is declining across the globe, with accompanying changes in species composition. Changes in the diversity and composition of aboveground and belowground communities, as well as their interactions, can profoundly influence the functioning of terrestrial ecosystems. Read more
Upcycling Farm Residues into Fungal Bio-inks for 3D Printing
This research plan is a collaboration between the School of Life Sciences and the School of Engineering, which will see the candidate work on fundamental aspects of biomaterials development while at the same time leading to practical applications of 3D bio-printing. Read more
ACCE+ DLA programme: Wild solutions: unlocking the potential of native grass microbiomes to boost crop resilience to environmental stress
Project Overview. As climate change, modern agriculture, and land-use changes continue to degrade soil health and threaten global food security, there is an urgent need for sustainable solutions. Read more
EastBio - Endophytes for sustainable barley production: harnessing microbes for improved pest, pathogen and environmental stress tolerance
Barley is the fourth most important cereal crop globally, cultivated in over 100 countries for food (human and animal) and for alcohol production. Read more
EastBio - Impact of the soil ecosystem on gastrointestinal nematodes of grazing sheep
Gastrointestinal nematode (GIN) parasites of sheep have a profound impact on animal health and welfare and the sustainability of the industry. Read more
ACCE+ DLA programme: Invisible diversity in a changing world: How do soil microbes affect plant drought tolerance?
The ACCE+ DLA is committed to recruiting extraordinary future scientists regardless of age, disability, ethnicity, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, faith or religious belief, pregnancy or maternity, parental or caring responsibilities or career pathway to date. Read more
Improving the design and implementation of spore traps
We’re looking for a student with a background in electronics engineering, mechatronics, software, or a related field. Experience in machine learning is desirable. Read more
Wild Atlantic Woods: how to recognise and maintain their cultural and conservation value
Forest health is a growing, international concern, with most attention focused on climatic drivers and regions with large tracts of forest cover. Read more
