Self funded MSc by Research or PhD in Biology: The oncogenic mechanism and potential of the emergent retrovirus ALV-K in global poultry

Lead supervisor: Dr Andrew Mason. The student will be registered with the Department of Biology. Background. Avian Leukosis Viruses (ALV) are oncogenic retroviruses which cause blood cancers in chickens, impacting commercial productivity and animal welfare. Read more

Self funded MSc by research or PhD in Biology: Chemical warfare in the rhizosphere: understanding the defensive role of plant root exudates against the bacterial pathogen Ralstonia solanacearum

Lead supervisor. Dr Andrea Harper. The student will be registered with the Department of Biology. R. solanacearum is a devastating bacterial plant pathogen that has a global distribution, wide host range, and no effective control methods. Read more

Employing molecular virology to investigate hepatitis E virus replication

This project is available to self funded candidates only. The Herod lab has a broad interest in virus replication, with a particular interest in studying single-stranded positive-sense RNA viruses important for human and animal health. Read more

Delineating the IRF6 regulatory network driving periderm formation and function

During development, the ectoderm passes through a series of cell states to produce a self-replenishing, multi-layered epidermis. Initial stratification forms a single-cell layer of flattened periderm cells which act as a barrier to prevent pathological adhesions during embryogenesis. Read more
