How does NRP2 keep blood vessels sealed and calm under stress? (ROBINSON_Q27DTP)

Blood vessels are lined by endothelial cells, which form a living barrier between blood and tissues. These cells must stay tightly connected, sense blood flow, respond to nutrients and communicate with immune cells, while avoiding unnecessary inflammation. Read more

Where does Salmonella hide? Using Organ-on-Chip technology to uncover the secrets of persistent infection (LANGRIDGE_Q27DTP)

Persistent asymptomatic infections remain an important but poorly understood public health challenge. Salmonella infections can become persistent, contributing to ongoing transmission, recurrent disease and potential prolonged antimicrobial exposure. Read more

Sweet and sticky: The role of protein glycosylation in bacteria colonisation and adaptation to the gut (JUGE_Q27DTP)

The accessory secretion (aSec) system is a protein export pathway that is uniquely present in Gram-positive bacteria and is dedicated to the secretion of large, glycosylated cell wall-anchored adhesins called serine-rich repeat proteins (SRRPs). Read more
 Supervisor: Prof N Juge

Evolutionary and Ecological Impact of the Western Lifestyle on the Gut Microbiome (HILDEBRAND_Q27DTP)

The human gut microbiome is a complex ecosystem shaped by diet, the host and microbial transmission between people. While gut bacterial populations were once thought to be genetically stable, we now know that they can evolve within their hosts over remarkably short timescales. Read more
 Supervisor: Dr F Hildebrand

How do fungi and bacteria communicate? Decoding the rules of cross-kingdom microbial interactions (BUSCAINO_Q27DTP)

Microorganisms rarely live alone. Instead, fungi and bacteria form complex communities where they constantly communicate, compete and cooperate. Read more
 Supervisor: Prof AB Buscaino
 30 November 2026  PhD Research Project  Competition Funded PhD Project (Students Worldwide)

Role of non-canonical autophagy in liver lipid metabolism in response to unhealthy diets (BERAZA_Q27DTP)

Obesity has epidemic proportions in the UK as more than 60% of adults are overweight and 33% have fatty liver. Poor dietary habits (western diets) are the main contributors to obesity and liver steatosis, where lipid accumulation becomes toxic for hepatocytes leading to cell death and consequent inflammation.
