Development of deubiquitinase-targeting chimeras (DUBTACs) for stabilisation of PDE4 to treat patients with high risk, androgen resistant prostate cancer
Research Group:
Institute of Cardiovascular and Medical Sciences
iCASE Project - MRC’s iCASE awards provide students with experience of collaborative research with a non academic partner, enabling the student to spend a period of time with the non-academic partner (usually no less than three months over the lifetime of the PhD). Read more
PhD in Geographical and Earth Sciences - Viruses in fractured basalt aquifers: terrestrial analog for a potential Martian subsurface microbiome?
Start Date. 01 October 2025. Motivation. On Earth, viruses are the most abundant microorganism in seawater (Suttle 2007). The relative abundance of viruses in terrestrial groundwaters is not yet known, but recent studies point towards a large and highly novel subsurface virome (Wu et al. Read more
Female mate choice, genetic effects, and the diverse reproductive strategies of live-bearing and egg-laying lizards
We have a fully funded PhD position available to join our team at the University of Glasgow Scotland through the competitively awarded, NERC-funded IAPETUS2 Doctoral Training Programme. Read more
Iapetus Doctoral Training Partnership: 13+ funded 3.5 year PhD Studentships
Iapetus is a Doctoral Training Partnership that joins the leading research universities of Durham, Glasgow, Newcastle, St Andrews, Stirling and Heriot-Watt together with the British Geological Survey, the UK Centre for Ecology & Hydrology and the British Antarctic Survey. Read more
Abasic pivots as a new modality for the development of oligonucleotide therapeutics
Background. Oligonucleotide (ON) therapeutics is an exciting clinically approved platform for the treatment of a range of diseases not readily accessible by small molecule drugs. Read more
Space-based water quality and light field prediction to support coastal aquaculture operations.
Aquaculture in coastal waters is critically dependent on water quality. Satellite remote sensing has the potential to provide water quality on unprecedented spatio-temporal scales but is currently hampered by fundamental limitations including atmospheric correction and algorithm failure in turbid waters.

PhD for IAPETUS2 DTP, NERC - The contribution of mesopelagic fish to the functioning of the Southern Ocean Ecosystem in a changing climate – an isotopic study.
Start Date. October 1st 2025. Myctophid fish comprise a high biomass in the Southern Ocean (Dornan et al. 2022), which plays a crucial role in food web operation and biogeochemical cycling (Murphy et al. Read more
PhD for NERC IAPETUS DTP - Coffee Grounds for an Equitable Transition
Start Date. October 2025. This project will provide the scientific foundation for a social enterprise based on repurposing spent coffee grounds (SCG) into growing media for profitable oyster mushrooms. Read more
PhD for IAPETUS2 DTP - Feathered Witnesses: Unravelling the Impact of Habitat Loss on Neotropical Avifauna with Stable Isotope Analysis
Start Date. October 1st 2025. The avian subfamily of Tachyphoninae are a group of Neotropical lowland Tanagers. Read more
PhD NERC IAPETUS DTP - Microbial degradation of glacial POPs
Start Date. October 2025. Project rationale: . Glaciers have been found to harbour anthropogenic pollutants. Read more
Fully funded EPSRC CDT in Engineering Hydrogen Net-Zero
Reaching global net-zero emissions targets, to tackle climate change and pollution, needs rapid growth in sustainable hydrogen technologies. Read more
Neurocomputational signatures of response to antipsychotic treatment in first episode psychosis
Research Group:
Institute of Health and Wellbeing
Patients suffering from a first episode psychosis (FEP) will typically present with hallucinations and delusions. The mainstay treatment for these patients is an antipsychotic medication. Read more
Artificial Intelligence Predictive Modelling for Exploring the Link Between Brain and Heart Ageing: Uncovering the Role of Cardiometabolic Disease in Dementia
Research Group:
Institute of Neuroscience and Psychology
Cardiometabolic disease (CMD) is a known risk for dementia, including risk factors like hypertension, “bad” cholesterol, and diabetes, suggesting an intricate connection between heart and brain health. Read more
Using data science and advanced imaging on patient-matched mini-avatars to improve precision medicine approaches
Research Group:
Institute of Cancer Sciences
