Restoration of microbial homeostasis as a novel intervention for immune ageing
With falling birth rates and increasing life expectancy we are an ageing population. This would be a cause for celebration if it were not for the fact that the period we spend in good health, healthspan, is not keeping pace with increased lifespan. Read more
Understanding the cellular mechanisms underpinning the loss of bone homeostasis in inflammation and ageing to identify novel therapeutic targets
We are seeking talented, motivated students with a passion for research to join the research team led by Dr Amy Naylor. https://www.birmingham.ac.uk/staff/profiles/inflammation-ageing/naylor-amy.aspx. Read more
Developing and applying computational methods to study ageing and rejuvenation
Ageing is the chief biomedical challenge of the 21st century, yet it remains a major puzzle of biology. Recent studies have shown that cells can be rejuvenated, and biological clocks reset, using cellular reprogramming. Read more
Uncovering the mechanisms of cryoprotectant toxicity and improving cryopreservation protocols
Cryopreservation is the process of placing cells, organs or even whole organisms at low temperatures so that they remain in a state of suspended animation and function is preserved. Read more
Preventing and treating multimorbidity: Identifying new therapeutic strategies through targeting ageing processes.
Research interests/description of main research theme. Due to our increasingly ageing society, the prevalence of multimorbidity (defined as having two or more chronic illnesses) has increased worldwide (Barnett et al. Read more
Inflammatory Steroid Metabolism as a driver of Muscle Wasting in Chronic Inflammatory Disease
Research interests/description of main research theme. Sarcopenia and multimorbidity are inherent complications of chronic inflammatory disease, increasing risk of falls and fractures and contributing to increased mortality (1-2). Read more
Improving diagnostic processes and therapeutic strategies in acute care
We are seeking talented, motivated students with a passion for clinically informed and clinically-based research using health data, studying as a PhD student affiliated with PIONEER, the Health Data Research Hub in acute care. Read more
Investigating innate immune dysfunction across inflammatory and fibrotic pulmonary disease
We are seeking talented, motivated students with a passion for research in acute or chronic pulmonary diseases (e.g. Pneumonia, Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome, Interstitial Lung Diseases) to join Dr Rahul Mahida’s team in the Institute of Inflammation and Ageing at the University of Birmingham (. Read more
Pathogenic roles of B cells in Rheumatoid Arthritis
We are seeking a talented and motivated PhD student to join our research programme at the interface between fundamental immunology and clinical rheumatology. Read more
Novel avenues in inflammation, vascular and bone research
We are seeking talented, motivated students with a passion for research in musculoskeletal ageing and immune-mediated chronic inflammatory diseases (e.g., rheumatoid arthritis, obesity, cardiovascular disease) to join the Inflammation, Vascular and Bone team (IVB) led by Dr Helen McGettrick (.
