The role of regulatory evolution in phage ecology

The University of Manchester Faculty of Biology, Medicine and Health

The regulation of genes crucially determines the fitness and function of all organisms. This is particularly relevant for bacteriophages, the viruses that infect bacteria, as they rely on a tightly scheduled program for a successful infection. Read more

Supervisors: Dr M Lagator, Dr CI Igler

Year round applications PhD Research Project Self-Funded PhD Students Only

Optimizing phage-antibiotic-synergies to kill bacterial pathogens

The University of Manchester Faculty of Biology, Medicine and Health

Phage therapy, the use of viruses that only infect bacterial cells and kill them, is a promising potential solution to the antimicrobial resistance crisis that is threatening modern medicine1. Read more

(University of Manchester - University of Tokyo Dual Award) Computational evolutionary biomechanics of bipedal/quadrupedal locomotion in early hominids

The University of Manchester Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences

The transition to habitual upright walking is one of the defining features of the human (as opposed to the chimpanzee) lineage and understanding its evolution is therefore of extreme interest to palaeoanthropologists. Read more

Cell biology and evolution of cancer metastasis

University of Reading Department of Biomedical Sciences

We are interested in the spread of cancer, a process called metastasis. Metastasis is responsible for the majority of cancer deaths and there are currently no effective treatments to stop this process. Read more

Understanding the ecological and evolutionary effects of heatwaves in tropical species and ecological communities

James Cook University College of Science and Engineering

Heatwaves are considered one of the most threatening processes for our plants and animal species as the Earth’s climate warms. There is much to understand about how our species and the ecological communities they form will change and adapt through heatwaves. Read more
