Biochemistry PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships for UK Students

We have 215 Biochemistry PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships for UK Students

Molecular characterisation of harmful diatom and dinoflagellate-pathogen interactions

The University of Aberdeen is offering a unique opportunity for a Doctoral Candidate (DC) to undertake full-time research, in the framework of the project in PHABB (“Pathogens of Algae for Biocontrol and Biosecurity”). Read more

Identification of eukaryotic pathogens of HABs that are relevant to Scottish salmon farming

The University of Aberdeen is offering a unique opportunity for a Doctoral Candidate (DC) to undertake full-time research, in the framework of the project in PHABB (“Pathogens of Algae for Biocontrol and Biosecurity”). Read more

PhD Studentship in Chemistry for Catalytic CO2 Utilisation

A PhD studentship is available at the University of Cambridge, starting in October 2025 under the supervision of Professor Erwin Reisner in the Yusuf Hamied Department of Chemistry. Read more

Designing novel biotherapeutics for effective and targeted treatment of cancer (SACHDEVAA_U24BIGC)

Primary supervisor - Dr Amit Sachdeva. Secondary supervisor - Prof Andy Cammidge. Over the last decade, several antibody-based biotherapeutics have been developed for treatment of cancer. Read more

ARC Training Centre for Next-Gen Biomedical Analysis - PhD scholarships

The ARC Training Centre for Next-Gen Biomedical Analysis invites exceptional individuals to join our collaborative, industry-driven doctoral program. Read more

Diabetic Foot Ulcer

PROJECT ADVERT. The management of chronic wounds poses a considerable burden on healthcare systems, with approximately 2.2 million patients currently afflicted, resulting in annual costs of £5.3 billion for the NHS to address wound care and its associated comorbidities, including amputations. Read more

Investigating how mitochondrial dynamics control mtDNA homeostasis and engineering tools to visualise mtDNA molecules

Mitochondria are dynamic organelles forming a specific network by membrane remodeling events according to cellular needs1. Mitochondria contain multiple copies of their own genome, mtDNA, a circular molecule that encodes essential proteins involved in cellular energy production. Read more

Discovering off-target side-effects and drug repurposing candidates using expression perturbation data

The MRC Integrative Epidemiology Unit at the University of Bristol is the leading group for the development and application of causal analysis and evidence triangulation in health research to improve lives. Read more

PhD student (m/f/d) position

Since its founding in 1987, the Institute for Nanophotonics Goettingen has been a pioneer in the transfer of application-oriented research between science and industry. Read more

Understanding control of genome folding by cohesin

Our basic goal is to understand how chromatin structure influences gene regulation. Chromatin is generally repressive in nature but its structure is manipulated by cells in a regulated way to determine which genes are potentially transcriptionally active and which genes remain repressed in a given cell type. Read more

Chemical energy conversion in biology studied using advanced spectroscopic and structural tools

Redox properties of metal-containing active sites are critically important to many biocatalytic processes. one third of all proteins contain a redox-active metal, and ca 22% of submissions to the Protein Data Bank contain a transition metal. Read more

Linking metabolism and metal resistance in pathogenic bacteria (SULLIVANM_U24AMSSCI)

Primary supervisor - Dr Matthew Sullivan. Group B Streptococcus (GBS) is an effective pathogen of humans and animals and is well known as the leading cause of often-fatal infections in newborn infants. Read more

Natural products in bacterial physiology and chemical interaction

Microbial natural products have diverse chemical structures and bioactivities, which range from cell-cell signalling, nutrient acquisition, antifungal and antibacterial activity to stress resistance (1). Read more

Obtaining insights into how a signalling hub protein Ras activates multiple effectors

The RAS family of small GTPases act as signalling hubs regulating cell proliferation and differentiation. They are highly conserved from yeast to humans, highlighting their fundamental biological roles. Read more

Molecular level understanding of Mycobacterium tuberculosis

Mycobacterium tuberculosis has evolved to survive and replicate inside macrophages. The project will investigate the molecular mechanisms underpinning adaptation to this specialised intracellular niche. Read more

Structural-guided PROTAC targeting of BMX to modulate apoptotic sensitivity in disease

What determines at the molecular level whether a cell lives or dies? Regulation of the cellular life–death switch is essential in healthy cells for normal foetal development and for the clearance of damaged cells. Read more
