Biological Sciences (dentistry) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

We have 23 Biological Sciences (dentistry) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

Postgraduate Research Opportunities at the Faculty of Medicine and Dentistry

To deliver our research strategy of ‘Better Health for All' and our aspiration to train the research leaders of the future, the Faculty of Medicine and Dentistry (top 10% faculties of medicine in the world, QS2022) has opened opportunities for self-funded PhD students in multiple areas of biomedical and translational research across six internationally recognised Research Institutes.

Is there a Role for Activated Akt in Palatogenesis?

Main Aim. The project will use a medial edge epithelial (MEE) cell line as an in vitro model. These cells will be used to investigate the effects of exogenous TGFβ-3 and activation of Akt on cell migration, epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) and apoptosis. Read more

Investigating molecular drivers of cell invasion

The Wells laboratory focusses on exploring the molecular mechanisms that underlie cell invasion. We have interests in cancer cell invasion and hemopoietic cell invasion. Read more

Investigating intrinsic and extrinsic mechanisms driving plasticity in colorectal cancer metastasis

This CRUK-funded project will commence in September 2024 and has funding for 4 years. The successful candidate will be based at Barts Cancer Institute, Faculty of Medicine and Dentistry (FMD), Charterhouse Square in the City of London. Read more

How does glycolysis influence the oral environment during caries and periodontitis?

Glycolysis plays a pivotal role during energy metabolism and cellular responses in oral health and pathology. It is a crucial metabolic pathway for energy production, especially in inflammation or infection scenario, that is essential for maintaining tissue integrity and function in the gingiva and dental pulp.

Predictable long-term care for dental implant maintenance

Applications are invited for a 3-year self-funded PhD Studentship to research antimicrobial coatings for implant abutments. These coated abutments will be part of a long-term care plan for dental implant maintenance. Read more

Exploring Innovative Approaches in Chronic Pain: Focus on Neuropathic pain and Spinal Cord Stimulation

Pain can be a debilitating long-term and persistent symptom in many medical conditions, adversely affecting quality of life. Neuropathic pain originates from nervous system damage, resulting in deficits in neural transmission leading to sensory, autonomic, and motor impairment. Read more

Alterations in reparative dentinogenesis with ageing, gender and genetic predisposition

Dental pulp exposure caused by tooth decay or injury can lead to life-threatening infections. Following injury, reparative dentinogenesis serves a vital purpose through the accelerated generation of tertiary dentine, comprising mineral and type I collagen. Read more
