MRC DiMeN Doctoral Training Partnership: Developing the next generation of glycopeptide antibiotics
The clinical deployment of antibiotics is undermined by antimicrobial resistance (AMR). Without new agents to treat antibiotic resistant bacterial infections, mortality rates are predicted to reach 10 million people per year by 2050. Read more
Epigenetics and Cancer: Determining how Mistakes in V(D)J Recombination Trigger Leukaemias and Lymphomas
Research Group:
School of Molecular and Cellular Biology
V(D)J recombination is essential to produce an effective adaptive immune system but since the reaction involves the breakage and rejoining of DNA, it is highly dangerous and errors have long been thought to lead to leukaemias and lymphomas. Read more
Seeing inside the brain of Alzheimer’s disease by cryoET
The aim of this PhD project is to determine the in situ 3D molecular structures associated with AD to understand disease mechanisms and molecular pathways that can lead to the rational design of a mechanism-based therapy. Read more

MRC DiMeN Doctoral Training Partnership: Seeing inside the Parkinson’s disease brain by in situ cryo-ET
Parkinson’s disease (PD) and dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) are characterised by the accumulation and spread of ⍺-synuclein filaments in the brain. Read more

Development of interfacial wax micro-morphology in plants and their interaction with micro-scale liquid droplets
Research Group:
School of Mechanical Engineering
The cuticle of plant leaf, functionalised by a hydrophobic micro-structured layer of wax, is a complex composite material that regulates interactions with natural and synthetic fluidic resources. Read more
Developing adjuvants to improve the antibacterial efficacy of fusidic acid: a novel approach to Antimicrobial Resistance?
Background. The antibiotic fusidic acid (FA) blocks bacterial protein synthesis by interacting with Elongation-factor G (EF-G). Resistance to FA is caused by FusB, which interacts with EF-G, altering its motion. Read more
Solar at the Nanoscale: High-resolution Mapping of Light-Harvesting Proteins with High-Speed Atomic Force Microscopy
Research Group:
School of Physics and Astronomy
Understanding photosynthesis could provide valuable clues for developing future solar technology and engineering improved food crops. Read more
Uncovering the viral and cellular components that dictate the neurological outcome of tick-borne encephalitis virus infection
The School of Molecular and Cellular Biology invites applications from prospective postgraduate researchers who wish to commence study for a PhD in the academic year 2024/25. Read more
Understanding protein aggregation in human pancreatic tissue
Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a chronic disorder, characterised by high blood glucose, resistance to insulin, and loss of pancreatic β-cells. Read more
Exploring Protein-Glycan Interactions with Fluorinated Carbohydrates
We are seeking an enthusiastic PhD student to join our exciting project on developing novel fluorinated glycan probes to study glycan-binding proteins (GBPs). Read more
Understanding Autoimmune Diseases Using Mass Spectrometry
Research Group:
School of Chemistry
Glycans are sugar-based molecules which play an important role in biological processes ranging from cell-cell communication to energy metabolism. Read more
